Re: Battery Question
 

Here's my gossip:

Spoke w/ Phil L and his comment was that the onboard charger would kill the batteries if left on for more than a few hours. It's only there for emergency situations when you find batteries too dead to start the engine(s).

He suggested using the onboard only to get the boat to start and then run the boat to charge them fully.

Over the winter, I've hooked up a charger that only comes on when it "sees" the batteries drop from full power, and then automatically turns off when re-charged.
