hello everyone,
I'm looking for a slow charge battery charger for our ski boat, it has 2 batteries and a shut off switch, the charger will stay plugged in when not in the water (mostly winter). so here is the charger i was looking at, has anyone used this particular one and have a review?

Ha, i have 4 of those on my cars and lawnmower, a little different style but same brand, have had them for close to ten years and no issues! The only reason i haven't bought another one was since it has two batteries i was thinking i need a 2 bank charger. Thanks!
Maybe 8 years. Yeah, wasn’t sure that would work, but are both batteries tied together, or a switch?

These are actually great little chargers. If you read the reviews on them they’re pretty well reguarded. I bought a 2 bank 20 amp one for my boat and now need a 4 bank. It’s brand new in the box never hooked up. I waited to long to return it to amazon. If you decide to go with a noco I will make you a great deal on it. I’m selling so I can buy the noco 4 bank for my bay boat.

I got a gift card for christmas i was trying to use up, i didn't find any reviews that showed long term, so thanks for the info. 4 batteries, you shouldn't have to worry about a juice issue,thats impressive!

I would think if the switch was in the both position it would work.

i still have 1 of the Schumachers laying around i may try hooking it up through the selector switch and see how it does pretty good idea, if nothing else i can keep switching it between the batteries through the switch. Thanks
