I agree 100% a three bank is the way to go if you can. However when I got my boat I placed the charger in the compartment for the 3rd battery in my Tuffy. The starting battery is in the back end of the boat and the cables would not reach. I am a very handy guy so I thought about cutting the cables and soldering extensions on. But then I checked with Minn Kota and they told me if I cut the cables the warranty on the charger would be void. (Really) But I said what the heck do it anyway, but then I priced what marine wire would cost and I was able to go to Fleer Farm and purchase a battery tender for less than the cost of the (wire, liquid tape, & heat shrink) So I accomplished what I needed to do.
I love this weather, :)
Love it when it all comes together!!
To the O.P. -- hands down, get the 3 bank! |
