I have a Formula 280SS with twin Mercruiser 5.7. It has two Optima Blue Top 34M batteries, 55 AH with 750CC Amps. I had a Xantrex2 40A Charger which has died after 8 years. I have replaced the batteries.
My question is what type of charger to replace it with? I was going to get the same one, but see horrible reviews online. My question is, should I replace with identical? Any other brands / models you recommend?
If it matters, these are the dual purpose type batteries, and the boat is hooked up to shore power when not in use.
Thanks for any ideas!!!!!
