Tracker Pro Guide V16 - onboard charger
#2
[font "Comic Sans MS"][#800000][size 3]I'm not sure what the configuration of the Pro Guide is compared to the Targa V16 I had for 11 years. I had my charger mounted high on the vertical wall just under the passenger side dash. On my new TnunderJet, it's mounted in the same place.[/size][/#800000][/font]

[font "Comic Sans MS"][#800000][size 3]I have to ask; why do you think you need to use the on-board charger to charge your cranking battery? Your outboard motor is charging your crank battery 100% of the time it is running. There is no reason that I'm aware of to every charge the crank battery except when you take it out of storage at the beginning of the new season. I owned my Tracker for 11 years and never once had to charge the crank battery between trips.[/size][/#800000][/font]

[font "Comic Sans MS"][#800000][size 3]I am looking into running a charge line from my outboard engines to my electric trolling batteries so I can extend the running time on them. I always push the boat with the 9.9 hp kicker (charging the crank batteries) and it may provide enough charge current to slow down the draw on the electric trolling motor bank. Still doing the research on that.[/size][/#800000][/font]
