About two weeks ago I installed a 3 bank Minn Kota charger and 3 new optima 31 agm batteries. Took the boat out the other day for the first time, went to plug the charger in today and the starting motor went from 25% to 75% in five hours. The two trolling motor batteries are still at 25% after 5 hours of charging. I didn’t run the batteries completely dead when we took the boat out the other day so it seems odd it’s taking so long to charge them. I’m using a 10 gauge extension cord that’s 25’ long, all the inline fuses are good, and the master switch for both sets of batteries is off so nothing is drawing power.
Are my expectations that these batteries should charge to 100% in 8ish hours way off, or could something be up?
If my expectation are off, how long should it take for the Minn Kota to charge them up?
Thanks for the info!
