[QUOTE="Allen, post: 107005, member: 389"] You don't need a triple. I run a dual bank to charge the trolling batteries and a single bank to top off the starting battery. All you have to do is run an extension cord under your floor up into the storage compartment where your dual bank is stored, then use a [IMG]http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41z9PeB1XdL.jpg[/IMG] Voila, one cord to plug in and all three batteries are being charged, all the while keeping your systems separate. [COLOR="silver"][SIZE=1]- - - Updated - - -[/SIZE][/COLOR] FWIW, my older Lowrance P.O.S. 480 has a voltage display on it, but it is pure crap. Even when the battery is new and fully charged it only registers around 12 V. A new 12V battery when charged is more like 12.6V, or with the engine running it can be up to around 13 - 14V, or something dumb like that. I NEVER see numbers that high on my Lowrance. It used to cause great consternation with me, but I've learned to ignore the damn Lowrance's advertised voltage. [/QUOTE]
