Do I Need More Power/Batteries?

[socalsynergy]

Chpthril,
Thanks for sharing your information, knowledge and expertise! After checking the wire connections and zone controls, we where banging our heads. We would have never thought that kicker reversed the wiring from the zone controller. Thanks for the easy fix.

I also have been looking at some on board chargers and would like your opinion as shown below:

I have two Interstate 29's in parallel for the stereo, one Interstate 29 for the house and one Interstate 24 for cranking.

Looking at a Guest 2631A 30amp 3 bank 10/10/10 and a Guest 2632A 30 amp 3 bank 20/5/5.
I think the 2632A sounds the best out of the two. I could have one bank 20 amp for the Stero Bank and 5 amp bank for the House and 5 amp bank for the Cranking Battery.

Any recommendations or issues?

After some research it looks like this battery charger is the closest to 10% of total AH of the 3 Interstate 29s and 1 Interstate 24 that is on my boat. A PROMARINER PRONAUTIC 1240P 3-BANK 40 AMP BATTERY CHARGER. Does anyone have any reviews on this?

Also check out the Pro Tournament 300 30A 3-bank.

chpthril. I have 2 batteries in parallel for stereo and 1 for starting/house. Would I only need a 2 bank charger?

In reality, a single bank is typoically all thats need to recharge the house, as the cranking is rarely ever run down. But, for the off season or when the boat sits, its nice to keep them all fresh.

So yes, a two-bank is fine. The important thing is the amount of amps you go with. A good rule of thumb is to get a charger with about 10% of your Ah's.
