Selected User Reviews For Minn Kota Digital On-Board Battery Chargers
An older battery charger I used had a 3 bank system, but it failed On my boat, I upgraded the battery system as I have four batteries and removed the parallel connections between two batteries that were there solely to charge the batteries. In my previous charger there was a single display for each output bank, but this charger has indicators for each output When I was on my boat, I believed the alternators had failed, but this charger fixed the problem in two days without me having to replace two of them. I'm very happy with my progress to date!.
Once I unhooked it, I let it sit for a while. Dec. 2016 was the date I bought this. There are four new batteries in my garage that I connected to the device. I had no problems with it. In about a year, I had it unplugged and left it. The circuit has shorted since I plugged it in yesterday (it had been in a garage all this time). If the product has a 3 year warranty, how do I return it, repair it, or replace it?.
This cooking battery was barely used for 1 year, and the circuit for battery #1 is out of power and the battery receives full power forever. Despite the fact that it should still be under warranty, MinnKota will not talk to me about this, even though it is stuck in full power on Battery 1. Having purchased both this and the E drive I also purchased from Amazon, which lasted only for a couple of months, I have decided not to purchase more products from MinnKota. A company that used to be great doesn't respond to e-mails or phone calls any longer, and I'm annoyed with the equipment itself. (However, I have a 25-year-old trolling motor that's still going strong. ).
In the last five years, we have purchased three units. Generally, they last about two years, then the bank goes out and you have to start all over again.
It remains mounted after I install it and works like a champ. Battery holds a charge for a long time with no problems.
It is a good eye on his part to see the price! Amazon's service is always the best, but their packaging is terrible! )It arrived with very minor damage, but it seems like packaging for heavy objects is an afterthought for them. With almost no air pouches on the other sides of only one side, that leaves lots of empty space for this to roll around in. The battery charger has been used constantly as a battery charger for the two batteries I use in my Bass Raider, and so far the battery charger has been functioning well. We use it every weekend at the very least there are no stars off for me, since the product itself works exactly the way it should, and this is a review of it rather than the I have to give Minn Kota credit for saving it with the box the charger comes in!.
The battery is automatically undercharged and is left to die if your device has With an amp meter, I can see that the charger doesn't ever put back what the motor takes out, so I always need a second charger to correct the problem. I will also be able to drain my batteries to zero without any extreme consequences.
My two banks, but you can go up to four, are perfect for me. Well made, works great, and I really like the two banks. In my opinion, it will be a good choice for both of you as well since it charges both batteries. Yes, I agree that the chargers are a good choice. That's all I have to say. I suggest you do.
