Ok, y’all forgive me if I recollect our conversation wrong. But as I recall, I pitched going 3 12 volts in series to him. That’s when he told me my minnkota digital 3 bank wouldn’t work. Said it wouldn’t hurt the batteries, but he has seen them melt the fuse holders on the charger leads. Didn’t recommend using it (mk digital). Then we covered that if I went 3 12 volts in series, I was out of option if that wasn’t enough capacity. I told him I had high needs, heavy boat and wanna troll like heck…
He said I could go 2 36 volts hooked parallel, and if that wasn’t enough, could add another in parallel. But that he doubted I’d ever use more than the 2 36’s. If so, it was same $ or cheaper to go that way, and it would run circles around a 12v series setup.
Hope I conveyed all that accurately!
