Need to replace on board 4 bank charger.

Might be able to get by with a 3 bank but looking for experiences to base purchase on. 2012 model year NOCO appears to have lost a bank or two. I have three new AGMs for the troll motor and a blue top for starter.

Appears some of the top of line models go for $600 range, that seems a bit rich for my budget. (Did see some recent sales of used, which I might consider if anyone has one not too old).

Looking for suggestions.

get the minn kota 440pc, auto detects type of battery and charges accordingly.

I have had great longevity from all my minn kota chargers.

Also might look at the option of buying two 2-bank chargers. See how it compares in pace needed and cost.

Also think about if you will go to lithium batteries in the future and get one that has the option of setting each bank separately for flooded, AGM, or lithium. As far as brand Minn Kota and Noco have both been good for me.....
