    I class question

    Is there any reason with the computer locking system not to install a 3 bank charger and have one on the cranking/accessories battery? If so I am gonna switch the one from my Javelin into my Skeeter since its the same age and brand and the Skeeter currently has a 2 bank. Thanks!

    Not a bad idea, but most of the I's have a 3 bank in them from the factory.

    I have a 4 bank charger with the 36V TM. I would recomend 1 bank for each battery.

    Re: I class question (blwall)

    When I was searching for my boat last year I talked to several people and dealers. Most of the dealers said that the 3 bank charger was sufficient. However, when I talked to people who actually owned an I-class, they said that they had issues with the cranking battery going bad because the electric locks when engaged would pull the cranking battery down and cause problems. They all said that if they were going to do it again, they would get the 4 bank charger. I know that when I travel with my boat I lock the boat at night and charge the batteries at the same time. Because I have a 4 bank charger there is never an issue because the cranking battery is getting charged the same time as the other 3.

    One bank for every battery! It is only $100 difference and you will never regret it!
