My ranger came with the Dual Pro Charger PS4. Its great. Just plug it in & walk away. But it’s making a funny “buzzing “ noise. I’m assuming it’s about to go out.

Check out Noco Genius Gen 3. I just ordered a 3 bank. Got great reviews and completely waterproof.

I have had all three listed above. For me it is a clear choice either dual pro or minn Kota. The customer service experience I had with noco was extremely bad. My first chargers, over the course of years, were dual pro. From 2001 thru 2017 dual pro. 3 bank on my 18’ boat - 2001 - 2004. 2004 - 2017, two dual pro and 1 noco genius. When the first dual pro went out, around 7 years, I thought I would try the noco since they were being recommended. Big mistake, after about 5/6 months it went out and customer service refused to do anything for me even though my marine dealer went to bat for me. So I said screw em and went back to 4 bank dual pro. Not another issue. Bought my new boat in 2017 put the minn Kota 4 bank in it and have been extremely satisfied. Sorry for the long read.

Whatever you get, get the 15A per bank version. I believe that means only Minn Kota and Dual pro as the option. 15A just prolongs your batteries so much it's incredible.

The Dual Pro I have is still working. All lights progress to green through charging process. After they all go green it makes a loud “buzz/humming” noise. I know a soft hum is normal but this seems different. I’m wondering if it’s not reducing to maintenance mode & is staying on full power. Any guesses?
