    I have a 220 and it works great.So handy when you are traveling to different places to fish.Take a heavy duty 100 ft. cord and you can keep those batteries charged just about everywere you go.

    I bought my three bank 10 amp charger from Jolly Wade last fall. I had it on my batteries in the garage all winter… and now I need to get my butt in gear and install it in the boat.

    Worked great over winter maintaining the batteries!

    I do not have one, but I was hanging with a friend in Anoka who owns a shop. He said his just failed, and he wasn’t surprised about it. He said that the most common return of the chargers is the Minnkota. I’m still a big fan of their trolling motors, but I won’t be buying one of their chargers.

    He said that Guest chargers have been his best experiences and have the least returns to his shop.

    We’ve been selling both Minn Kota and Guest for a few years now. In the electronics business there are a lot of returns, but I don’t recall a single return on any MK or Guest charger. I’m sure there must have been one or two along the way but it clearly has not been a problem and we sell a lot of both brands. Both are good companies with good service. A couple of pros for the MK… THREE year warranty and a nice little rebate right now ($25-$35). They’re very affordable units. You’d be happy with either Dan.

    Thanks Wade. I ordered a MK charger from your site this afternoon. Thanks for mentioning the rebate, I forgot about that part.

    Thanks Dan. I didn’t even recognize that it was you! And yes, that rebate makes a good price even better!
