Battery Charger options (2015 ZX-boats)

[utinator]

My Minn Kota charger broke last year when I moved the boat to Texas from Virginia. The attachment holes in the charger casing are completely busted. I believe the internals work, but I can't attach it to anything. It looks like the MK-440-PC is the only one that will fit on the mounting plate. Are there any other charger that will fit in the same place? Has anyone replaced their charger?

I went to BPS and Academy, but they don't have any 4-bank chargers. I would have to order something, but I don't know what will fit other than the MK-440-PC. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Mine did the same thing. I got some self tapping screws and drilled through the side flange. Holding so far

Mine did that this year. I added some washers that where bigger then the screw recesses.

I caught mine with two broken mounting holes before it completely detached. Some advice for anyone with these boats: Take 2 of the extra large zip ties and wrap them completely around the charger and the metal angled plate that they mount on. Keeps it solid and wont vibrate and break.

I used a fairly heavy duty ratchet strap and in almost a year it hasn't budged.

I ended up ordering a new one from Minn-Kota. Hopefully, it will break before the warranty is up this time.
