When we had our previous 330 Sundancer, there were ongoing issues with the batteries until I determined that the factory installed charger was no longer functioning correctly. In fact, it was putting out a continuous full charge to the batteries, resulting in ruining them. My solution was to install a ProMariner 1230P Charger, which worked flawlessly on that boat!
Naturally, when we bought our new-to-us 370 Sundancer, I replaced the old charger with this same model ProMariner unit, including a remote monitor. After two full seasons with it on Boogaboo, I am once again very happy with the performance and maintaining the batteries properly. Would highly recommenced this upgrade, especially for folks like ourselves who do lots of cruising with overnights away for m the dock and shorepower. Having properly functioning batteries is paramount when running fridges, lights, electronics and more without the benefit of shorepower for a few days.
Links to the charger PLUS remote I used on this project from Amazon. Note that your system may need a charger with different specs, depending on how many batteries you'll be charging, the AC input (120v vs 220v), etc.. Be sure to order the correct unit for your needs. * Disclosure: As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.
