I am looking to buy a new 3 bank on board charger and would like some reviews, comments, recommendations, etc.
I would like to be able to hook it up, plug it in, and be able to leave it plugged in.
thanks

The minnkotas work great. If you want to get a GREAT deal on one buy one from the same guy on ebay I did. He sells left over OEM stuff from Ranger. take a look at his ebay store. Go to ebay then do an adavance search for stores. Look up Ozarkliving911. He has several on there cheap right now. They are brand new. I have a bought a bunch of stuff from this guy and he is top notch.
Retirement best job ever.

Does a 3-bank charger charge all batteries concurrently or alternate thru the batteries? Other than a quicker charge, does it matter?

Dual pro or Minnkota are both good chargers. The higher amps per bank give you a faster charge. 15 amps per bank will fully charge in about 5 hrs, 5 amps per bank will charge in about 10 hrs.

Dual pro is the best with great customer service. If you can spend a few extra dollars more get the 15amp per bank charger(3x15). Really speeds up the recharge time on those occasions when you get in late and are leaving out again early. Search the internet and you can buy them below retail and without tax.

Minnkota, Dual Pro or Guest would be the only three I would choose from.
