    Would of routed the power wire different so its not so visible, also would of used a old rod sock as loom and hidden most of all those wires, and would of installed a [NOCO extension receptacle] that has the waterproof cap, great video and you may have addressed the things I mentioned, I know you were pressed for time when you did the install glad you used the dialectic grease is such a good practice . stay safe, and FISH-ON MICK IN FL, HARRIS CHAIN OF LAKES

    I'm sure by now you realized that you have to select the right type of battery on the charger. When you fired it up you left the first two banks on lead acid not AGM. Good video.

      good point. when you set the NOCO charger to the correct battery type (in my case 2 AGM's and 1 Lead acid) and finish charging, then unplug the charger, do you need to set the battery type on the charger again next time you plug in? Or is there a memory on the NOCO?

    • @ProWrenching
      @ProWrenching  Год назад

      Yes -I’m running 24V on my trolling motor. There are 3 leads for this charger- one for each battery. It will charge each battery indiv. at 12 volts, even if your trolling motor batteries are wired up for 24 volt. Just connect the positive and negative leads going to each battery as you normally would and it will charge each battery at 12 volts.

    I got a question I have the same battery layout in my boat I have one acid battery for cranking and 2 acid for 24 volt teolling motor what's the difference between a 2 bank and 3 bank charger and can I use a 2 bank
    And arent these chargers used to charger your trolling motor batteries while the big motor is running ?

    • @ProWrenching
      @ProWrenching  Год назад +2

      You want the three bank charger so you can charge all three of your batteries at the same time. The three bank charger has individual leads that go to each battery. This allows you to charge the batteries individually at 12 V even when two of them are set up as 24 V for your trolling motor. You can select between lead acid or AGM batteries for each bank. A two bank charger will only allow you to charge two batteries. This battery charger will not charge your batteries unless it is plugged into an outlet. When you’re running your boat, the alternator on your boat engine will charge your cranking battery only, not your trolling motor batteries.

If your trolling motor batteries are fully charged before you get out on the lake, they should have enough charge for you to use your trolling motor all day. If not, you may have bad batteries.

      The battery charger that I installed in the video has three sets of leads that go to three individual batteries and it is meant to charge the batteries individually. In general if you have batteries connected in a parallel circuit you can charge multiple batteries with one charger..

      The X2 is a offbrand odyssey battery. The 31 series is the one I run I have three of them two for the trolling motor one for the main motor and all the goodies. They’re only $50 cheaper than odysseys and are quite pricey at about $500 apiece and they are absolutely heavy bricks, but are probably the best AGM battery you can get on the market today.
