Bass Pro Xps 5 5 Battery Charger Manual
Shop the Boating department for Bass Pro Shops® XPS® Intelligent Technology Series On-Board Marine Battery Charger - XPS iT 5/5/5 today from Bass Pro.
I have 3 batteries in my boat; one 12 volt for the engine and components, the other two attached in series to make 24 volts for my trolling motor. I am looking to buy a charger that will be the easiest in terms of charging as so I do not have to manually attach a portable charge. I have seen the on board chargers that will automatically charge the battery when needed and or trickle charge the battery over months for maintenance. One in particular is XPS I 5/5/5 DC SYSTEM 12/24/36 by Bass Pro Shops.
Questions • This unit does have 3 banks. Does this mean I can connect it to my 12v/24v setup; one to each battery without danger of damaging the others? • I understand I do not have to disconnect anything as to charge. Study material for kids.

Is this correct in my config; just plug the charger in and leave it alone? • The batteries the boat dealer gave me are the type that require water with the removable cell covers; they are not maintenance free. Now I am accustomed to removing these when placing a regular charger on said batteries as so the cells can “breath”. Do I still need to do this with this type of charger, and if so, how do you do it without acid getting to the other components of the boat. • Ventilation is supposed to be an issue but it sounds like people do this in a closed engine compartment. Can I do this with the engine compartment closed, even the trickle charging/months?
