Hello everyone,

I'm looking for some assistance about battery hook ups/diagrams. I currently have a 12v 54# Minn Kota Ipilot trolling motor ran off one group 24 deep cycle battery. At times when I am fishing heavy current for long periods or fish an entire day, I've wished I had a second battery. I recently purchased a two bank Minn Kota on board charging system so before I choose the location for installing it.....

Is it possible to wire a second battery in the bow along with my first battery and have the two batteries on a switch where they can be ran independently from one another? And if so, will the on board charger still be able to charge these batteries independent from one another?

Thanks for any help or advice!
