I have a Dual Pro 2 bank charger that is about 10 years old, so I was thinking I might just go ahead and buy a new 3 bank charger(figure I can sell the 2 bank) since I'll be adding another battery. Input/suggestions on a brand/type of charger? Thanks!

I have fished 4 days straight and never plugged in the charger and the trolling motor was still as strong as the 1st day

If the 15amp per bank charger is in your budget buy the more powerful one. I serched the internet and got mine way less than retail plus no tax.

I just purchased a NOCO Genius charger 3 bank @10 amps per bank for 145 bucks on Amazon. Has received all good reviews by people who own them for 1/2 the price. If it lasts 5-10 years, its a heck of a deal.
