Manuals

The ProMariner ProNautic P is a digital marine battery charger rated 20A at 12 VDC, with three battery bank outputs. It takes 100 to 240 VAC input, measures 10.25 by 8.5 by 3.5 inches and weighs 5 lb. It offers twelve charge profiles and 4-stage charging, chosen by the user. Output is shared among the banks according to what each battery needs, a remote temperature probe is included, and the charger is ignition protected and current limiting.

Our take

Sharing 20A at 12 VDC across three banks, with output split according to what each battery needs, lets one charger look after several batteries. The included remote temperature probe lets it compensate automatically for battery temperature.

From our buying guide

NMMA says charging sources must meet the charging profile the battery maker recommends. A charger's presets are its own maker's, not the battery's, so set it from the battery maker's figures.

Check before you buy:

  • It can follow your battery's profile, since not every charger can follow a lithium maker's.
  • Its output suits your bank. ProMariner recommends about 10 percent of the batteries' total amp-hour capacity, with one charger output for each battery.
  • It suits how you'll use it, since ProMariner says its waterproof chargers are for batteries not in use while charging.
