Hey Joe

I don't have an answer for you (my OEM charger is still working well), but a suggestion.... check out bass boat central forums, you will get an answer over there.

It's the only place I go anymore for bass boat questions or advice.

See ya on the river soon.

I had a Dual Pro that lasted for years that I was happy with but after checking around I ended up buying a pro tournament 300. I love this charger. I can easily be up to full charge overnight on all three batteries. It weighs less than comprible chargers and I can leave it plugged in over extended periods of time without any overcharging. I fried plenty a battery with my dual pro forgetting it was plugged in even though it had a shutoff system built in. (Always check fluid levels) Another thing about the pro tourney is 30amps means if one battery is fully charged it will use the extra amps on one of the other banks. Not just 10 amps per bank like most chargers.

Dual Pro 15 amp per bank. I have had them in all my bass boats. and only had a problem once and they sent me a replacement. Love those folks.
Any one want a three bank, Only two banks work. It's the one that was replaced.
