I'm guessing you didn't buy that at Wal Mart.


No...I wanted to do that right the first time. Also used all new Newmar
breaker panels on the boat. They are expensive but you pay for what you
get.


Way to go Joe..... I had my charger built by students in an electronics
class, my buddy is the instructor. Class project. I bought the
parts/case/cables. Flawless!


Sounds like the perfect option. Some things you just do not want to go
cheap.
I even tried the RV stove route...What a mistake. Went thru 2 in 6 yrs
and finally paid the price for a force 10. Man I wish I did it right to
begin with.



I guess those $29.99 Wal-Mart chargers are okay if you have a tiny boat with
an outboard and rarely sail.


I would not go that route.
