rubble Posted August 19, 2023 Report Share Posted August 19, 2023 Just switched out all Batteries; Crank and 36v system. I currently have a Stealth DC Charger and a 3 Bank Dual Pro. Danny at Stealth walked me through hooking up the system to charge everything properly using the 3 bank even though I have 4 batteries. It’s also setup to work allowing Battery 2 to crank the boat if Battery 1 is down so it works, I just would rather have the system made for the 4 batteries. Prefer being able to look at a visual meter showing the status of all 4 batteries. as it stands it’s kind of a cluster with the meters on the 3 bank. All that said, any suggestion on changing from the Dual Pro 3 bank to a 4 Bank? I would imagine that the Stealth AC charger would be a good one but seems like I’ve noticed other options out there that might be worth a look. Minn Kota? Power Pro? Dual Pro? Stealth? Thoughts???

I've got the Dual Pro and it is a pretty heavy unit and does take up some space in my CC. Is the Noco Similar? I've read several good reviews and may lean that way. Going to talk to Danny about the Stealth this week if I can reach him but I'm not seeing much current info on Stealth. Wondering if they are still manufacturing product?

Fish5 Posted August 20, 2023 Report Share Posted August 20, 2023 I hade the Minkota, it was large and heavy. There was a thread about this, that’s where and why I made my decision Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishmanjj Posted August 20, 2023 Report Share Posted August 20, 2023 I have Minn Kota 3 bank digital, it works great still after 6 years. It’s mounted inside the center console and has taken a beating and keeps on ticking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
16bayfisher Posted August 20, 2023 Report Share Posted August 20, 2023 The Pro Mariner Tournament and Elite do what you're asking. I recently switched from the Dual Pro 6 amp model to the Pro Mariner 24 amp and it will charge my dead TM batteries overnight vs the whole day for Dual Pro. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smilemaker Posted August 22, 2023 Report Share Posted August 22, 2023 I have had pro mariner tournament elite 4 bank charger for several years. I run 5 batteries and use it for 3 trollers and house. My cranker is usually isolated and stays charged from the motor. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ofdphildo Posted August 22, 2023 Report Share Posted August 22, 2023 Noco 4 bank here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redzone1 Posted August 22, 2023 Report Share Posted August 22, 2023 I’ve had a dual pro sportsman 3 bank that was installed in 2006 on a 2000v I had. I sold the boat last September and it was still going strong. I’ve had NOCO smart chargers on 3 other boats and they were also flawless. My current 24TRS has a Pro Mariner Tournament Elite 360 4 bank, and it too has worked as it should. I don’t think it matters as long as you stick with main name brand players in the marine charger market. It would probably be wise to get one that can also charge a lithium battery since I think that is the way of the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
