I put one in 2 yrs ago and have been very impressed and would not want to me on a big lake / trip like LOTW without one... never have to worry about battery life at the end of a long 15 hour day on the water!
Precisely! This is exactly what I found out last year when on LOTW for a week with NO access to electricity other than a portable generator. I never used the generator during the trip and never had issues with my trolling motor batteries. When running from spot to spot its several miles and that was enough to keep the batteries close to 100%. The lowest I had seen on the batteries was like 70%.
The other boat charged his batteries twice. Which isn't a big deal but it sure was nice not to need to.
He ended up buying one for his boat after seeing my experience.
