I bought this got my camper. Works great with 2 batteries. Not sure it would keep your trolling battery charged if you're using it frequently. If your boat charges batteries when running this might keep them topped off for you when sitting at dock.

I bought this for my travel trailer. Haven't installed yet. Waiting for better weather. I'll respond once it's installed

Watts are watts per hour. This will recharge 15 watts per hour under ideal conditions. If you are looking just to float charge your batteries- this will do it nicely. If you are looking for this unit to be your only charger- I doubt 15 watts will be enough. If you are expecting this to be your only charger: How may watts are you using per hour and how many watts per hour needed to recharge after a days work? Remember that chances are you will be attempting to recharge durning the night which means no solar power.

trolling motors use a lot of power. you may need one for each batter. if trolling all day. and may have to charge up at night..? just depens on how much trolling you do? good luck!

We actually gifted this product so we don't own one and have never used it ourselves, so I'm not sure how well it works in this situation. The people I have talked to use it for long term charging like through the winter months.

The solar charger would work as a maintenance charger only. Which means, the batteries must be fully charged prior to connection of the solar charger.The solar charger will maintain the top charge on the batteries as long as there are no draws on the batteries. The batteries would need to be either wet conventional or AGM type.The 2 batteries would also need to be connected in parallel (pos to pos / neg to neg) so it will be a 12 volt set of batteries.

yes that is what I do in my boat for 2 rv batteries and it works great. make sure and get the power regulator so you don't over charge your batteries.

No. I use one for a tractor battery over the winter, 2-3 months between starts. Go for it. Maybe the battery will still be some good when you're able to get the boat in the water. Better, much better to keep battery up than to let it discharge too low. That kills batteries' life span. Especially in the cold.

I've got two 24 Series AGM Batteries I use with my Trolling Motor and while taking a few hours off due to the afternoon heat I'll hook up my Solar Panels {2} and it picks my Batteries up somewhat to last the rest of the day until I charge them at night.

Mine keeps 2 optima blue marine deep cycle batteries charged on my sailboat.

There is a factory installed battery that is supposed to last ten years. I installed one on my last boat and it is still going after twelve years.

Yes, I have mine attached to my battery in my boat 24/7 (at least in the summer) and use the boat at the same time. Don't expect this charger to come anywhere close to charging your battery while using the trolling motor tho. Connect it and forget it.

The boat does not include any batteries. You will need two 2S (7.4v) Lipo Batteries with EC3 connectors. I would suggest batteries in the 4500-5500mah range. Don't forget a charger, too.

I use a 12 volt car battery. It runs all afternoon on it. It would probably run even longer on a deep cycle marine battery.

It really just depends on how much of a draw the bilge pump has. I ran a 2-3 amp CB radio for 4 or 5 hours, and the battery is rated for 7 amp hours, so if you draw 7 amps constant, it should last 1 hour, do the math from there. Sorry I couldn't give you a more definitive answer.

Everyone says they get only 5 to 10 minutes on each battery charge. My son has more than 30 minutes of fun time each use. Please ensure you are letting the battery charge all night the night before you have to use it. Great Boat. I will not even want $58.00 for it. More please!

Sometimes its better to buy a deep cycle Marine battery if you want a ton of Amps and juice..Keep it charged

One battery. You can use a LiPo which will give you longer battery life and more speed.

Barbara, not really sure. I have 2 batteries. I use it keep them topped off when the boat is not in use. It works well. they stay fully charged. I have left the live well running all night with the unit plugged in and it seem to keep the battery topped off. sorry I don't know more about it. I like the unit though.

Works great. I use the cart only a few months as it is with our 2nd home at the beach. And we rent the house during the summer weeks. So we are there 2 weeks during the summer and mostly winters. I start with fully charged battery and then hook the 36volt unit up and it keeps the battery fully charged. We will be back at the beach during Aug and all I do is turn the key and off we go.

I have used this battery to power a similar trolling motor on a Native Watercraft Ultimate 16 with 2 adults for 2 consecutive days. I do not know how much power was left so I recharged before the third day. This was not constant use, but it was a significant amount of time running on speed levels 3 and 4 of a 5 speed motor. I have done this several times in both river and bay applications. Hope this helps.

It will continue to charge as needed. It is a battery maintainer as well as charger. I keep them running on my boat 24/7 all winter long
