Recommends 4 inverter/battery charger systems
Looking to purchase a new system for my Mistress......no ac aboard or need for a generator just a minimal 1200 watt inverter needed.
Have 4 (wet leaded) batteries aboard to keep charged also............what's out there? ...and what inverter/battery charger systems are Cigarette owners using? |
C'mon nobody can share or recomend what battery charger is serving you well?.........on different note, I found a power transformer bolted inside the lower stb cabinet.
Heavy as hell (and I'm guessing) probabely standard equipment back in '82.......................does anybody with an early to mid 80's Cigarette ever find this in their boat? |
This is the 4-bank battery charger I have on my boat. It works very well. It will not solve your requirements for an inverter though. That you will have to install separetely.

http://www.promariner.com/en/51034 is mounted mid cabn I'd have to splice them.............probabely would void warantee. |
Instead of splicing and voiding warranties, you can always use terminal blocks to terminte the ends, and extend to the batteries from there.

Thanks for the recommend!........Is your battery charger mounted close enough to your batteries where the standard cables supplied reach?..........in my case, because ther battery charger
is mounted mid cabn I'd have to splice them.............probabely would void warantee. |
i replaced my xantrex 1000 charger/inverter (for sale in swap shop) with a dedicated charger. I decided to get rid of all the ac since it was never used.
this is the charger i bought: http://www.mastervolt.com/products/c...aster-12-25-3/ will have each starter battery on its own bank & then the two stereo batt's will be on the third bank. |
I also installed a pro-mariner, standard equipment at West Marine when you are stuck at the marina and need to install a battery charger. I have only 3 banks (batteries). I like the unit, much more advanced that the standard equipment crica 1990.... Easy to install, in place of old charger in engine bay, used the wires that came with the unit, no splicing required.

Same here - 3 bank, 30 amp. Works well.
