A modern angler needs a reliable and powerful battery for their high-performance fishing boat. This is because they have advanced electronics, trolling motors, and other extras. Lithium batteries are becoming increasingly popular because they are lightweight, charge quickly, and have a long lifespan. It’s essential to have a charger that works with them. The Minn Kota On-Board Precision Charger with Lithium-Optimized Charging is a very important upgrade for your boat’s power system for this reason.
Precision Charger Made with a specific purpose in mind
Minn Kota’s On-Board Precision Chargers are made from the ground up for serious fishermen who need their gear to work perfectly and be reliable. You can charge any battery on your boat quickly, safely, and in the way that works best for you with each unit, which has 1, 2, 3, or 4 banks.
The Precision series is unique because it has a charging algorithm that adapts to each battery. This charger automatically finds and meets the needs of each battery, whether it’s an AGM, flooded lead-acid, or lithium battery, which is becoming more and more popular. 
Precision Charger that works best with lithium: a game changer
The most recent version of the Precision Charger has a feature called “Lithium-Optimized Charging” that is made just for 12-volt lithium (LiFePO4) batteries. This isn’t a “lithium mode” or a workaround that works for everyone. Minn Kota engineers worked closely with the biggest makers of lithium batteries to make sure that this feature works with all of them and works as well as it can.
Here are some of the main benefits:
Correct Charging Profile: You can’t charge lithium batteries the same way you charge regular batteries. The Precision Charger keeps lithium power cells fully charged and in good shape by charging them with a flat voltage curve and phase-correct charging.
Full Recovery: On the other hand, the Minn Kota charger fully charges lithium batteries, which makes them last longer and work better.
Clever and Safe: Built-in monitoring systems keep things safe from too much voltage and smart shutoff features keep things from breaking when the weather gets bad.
LED Clarity for Feedback in Real Time
The On-Board Precision Charger also has a great LED display that is easy to use. You can see how charged each battery is and how much power it has right now. This way, you can make sure that each battery charges properly and find any problems before they happen on the water. You can also choose the type of battery for each bank by hand, which gives you complete control over how your system charges.
Made for the boat, tough, and waterproof
The charger is completely sealed and waterproof, so it can handle even the toughest marine conditions. It is made to withstand shock, vibration, and rust from saltwater. In short, it can handle the tough weather that your boat has to deal with every season.
A Good Upgrade for New Marine Electronics
There is more gear on boats today than ever before. Your battery bank powers all of the following: powerful trolling motors, bow graphs, transom graphs, forward-facing sonar, and live imaging. To keep those batteries fully charged, especially when using lithium, you need more than just a store-bought solution.
Whether you’re getting ready for a tournament or fishing off the grid, the Minn Kota On-Board Precision Charger with Lithium-Optimized Charging makes sure your power system is set up right and ready to work at its best.
Your batteries and fishing days will start and end strong with Minn Kota’s Precision Charger.
