    Default Best way to charge 24 V trolling motor system


    What is a decent charger for a 24V trolling motor system? I see a lot out there just not sure which one people have had bad experiences with before?

    Thanks!

    I've always used Bass Pro on-board chargers and have never had a problem with them. The prices are decent and when you get back from fishing you plug it in and then forget it until time to go again. Only way to fly, I mean boat. Other than that check with our sponsors for the best deals.

    x2 on the Bass Pro XPS on-board chargers. We've had them in our last two boats without any issues. Last time I checked, these units are actually made by ProMariner with BPS cosmetic and labeling changes.

    Those were the ones I was looking into...saw some of the reviews were pretty good but they aren't always accurate. Looks like they will be on the Black Friday list! Thanks guys!

    I use a MinnKota 330D three bank onboard charger......works great, no problems.....I plug it in when I unhook the boat and leave it plugged up until I hook up again.
    I have spent most my life fishing........the rest I wasted.

    I had a bass pro that worked fine for years untill I killed it. Now have a ProMariner that has been plugging along for 3 years without a problem.

    I believe Pro Mariner makes the Bass Pro chargers. At least they use to.

    They still do Bill. That is why I bought the ProMariner. I was real happy with the BassPro unit and when I need one they had the ProMariner about 50.00 cheaper. Also they have really good customer service.
