    I have a minn kota 210D. Got it from amazon for $116. It has almost a 5 star customer review. I think I even got free shipping with mine. It has worked perfect for almost a year now. I'm happy with it.

    Can't go wrong with Minn Kota! I have TM batteries on a 210 & cranking battery on a 106. Never any issues.

    Don't have anything to compare it to, as it's the first one I've ever had .... but, my Minn Kota MK220 has served me well over the last couple of years. I didn't buy it, it came with the boat I bought from a lifelong friend & site member.

    Current production model is a MK220D (digital) and can be purchased for <$200 (+s/h) online.

    I've had three Guest chargers and no problems. I shim chargers 1/4" or so away from mounting surface so they stay cool while working.

    NOCO Genius 2 Bank or the MK 220D The Genius is lighter, cheaper and IMO a better charger. I would stick with 10A minimum.

    If there is a chance you might go to a 24V TM in the future, get a 3-bank charger and tape up the leads from the extra bank.

    Dual-pro. Made in the USA (TN) and are repairable, if something goes wrong rather than having to buy a replacement.
