| Hey Spongy: I have always unplugged every thing when charging the batteries and have never had a problem, it''s just cheap insurance to spend 5 min each time vs possible hundreds of $$$. Plus it forces me to check the connections for wear or corrosion which could cause problems of thier own. |

| Thanks John! 1 answer is all I need to remember to unplug it all! Had a gut feeling that my next rig would be the 1 to screw up the trolling motor....[:sun:] |

| Spongy,
I have a Minnkota Autopilot that requires that it be unplugged when charging or else you will truly fry the internal compass. |
