| I am going to put a on board charger in my boat this spring. I have a 24 volt power drive trolling motor. I have been looking at the minnkota chargers. Just wondering what others have in there boat. Also what is the best choice for amps per bank. I see they have a 5amp and a 10 amp. |

Location: Mt. Zion, IL | Minn Kota 3 bank 10 amp per bank is how I would go. I have had mine for a while and it has served me very well. I would not think 5 amps would be enough to charge overnight for consecutive days use. |

Mine is a dual pro that was installed by Lund. It's been a great charger |

I run a 24 volt 80 Lb thrust trolling motor and for the past 6 years I've used a Minn Kota 210D on board charger. The 210 is a 2 bank w/ 5 amps per bank. Never had a problem attaining a full charge overnight, even when I really wear down my batteries.

Location: Minocqua, WI | Last summer I upgraded from ancient Dual Pro 3-bank system to a 3-bank MinnKota Precision 345PC. It gets 15 amps per bank. I love it and it's been awesome. |
