| My boat has 2 12v batteries hooked up to the trolling motor( i can, and would like to eventually, hook up 3 batteries to it). I have an on board charger, but I keep my boat at a storage unit and have no where to plug it in. Right now I have to take the batteries out every time I want to charge them. This is a hassle and I would like to find a way to charge them without having to take them out. Does anyone have any ideas? Is there a portable battery charger that does not require a power source? Or anything like that? Any help would be great. Thanks. |

Location: New Hope MN | A generator.
I charge my batteries up in the middle of nowhere all the time. get a 2000watt inverter generator.
Honda 2000i is the best in the business. Yamaha has a really nice one too
Otherwise a cheap option is the OCP 1600watt inverter generator they sell at CostCo. Not as nice, but only $500 (50% less than Honda).

| would the solar panel charge the batteries while i fish, so they last longer? |
