A lot of the battery chargers these days only last >5 years. It's not like the ones from >2000 that weighed 35lbs and lasted decades......
They only go about 3 years. I have a boat that I have managed maintained for a while and have replaced the Xantrax charger twice now. You can...
Speaking of which, I just had an owner buy an early 80's 55' Hatteras SF for around $100k with 12v71TI's and it has a complete set (24) of new...
