On Board chargers

[Slab Junkie]

Dual Pro is my favorite and I've had them and Minn Kota both.

I have used the BPS brands and also Dual_Pro and they worked good but what I like about the MinnKota over them is ......the way the MinnKota puts the charge in in steps does a good job charging without cooking your water away overtime. I do not have to add distilled water near as often.

The Dual Pro I just got works just like the MinnKota I have up front for trolling battery. It charges in steps and has the maintenance mode also.

I'll throw my hat into the ring and say BPS XPSi series. THey're made by ProMariner and I'm going on my third year with a 3 bank charger plugged in 24/7 when the boat isn't in the water. It's lightweight and recharges fast.

I have had a ProMariner for three years and it just went bad last week. I'm thinking three years is good for something that is always on. I'm looking for a new one and MK does look like a good unit but I may go back with the PM unit also.

I purchased one of the BPS 3 bank chargers a few years ago and it went out right close to the end of the warranty. I was expecting to return it to Pro Mariner and wait for however long to get it fixed but within a week from me sending out my old unit, I received a brand new ProMariner and they paid shipping to me as well. I was shocked at how fast I got they new unit, and its worked like a charm for about 3 years now with no issues. I will buy from them if I need to ever replace. Never had a minn kota charger, but if its as good as my MK trolling motor, it will be alright as well.

I bought a boat that has this one...a ProTournament 150. It's quick....charges all 3 batteries overnight. I dont know how long it has been in the boat. I've had the boat for a little over a year now.

I have a 15 amp, three bank from BPS that is many years old and still works great, never had a issue with it cooking the water out of the batteries. I'll buy another when this one dies.

I have MinnKota and have had no problems...
