I just bought a Ranger dual pro 2 bank charger. I have not installed it in my boat yet. Previously during the winter months, I would take all my batteries into my basement, and keep them charged up using just a regular charger. But I figured now I'll just use the onboard charger and plug it in downstairs until I install it. The question is this: To charge up my trolling motor batteries, do I still have to have the "jumper" cable connecting the positive on 1 battery to the negative on the other like it will be for my 24v system once it's on my boat? Or can I just charge it as a 12v, and hook up the cables from the charger to each battery without connecting the batteries any other way? Thanks!
