NitroTom Posted April 21, 2017 Posted April 21, 2017 I was wonder how much ventilation do these really need? I would be charging 2 batteries... Do I need to open the rear compartment where the batteries and charger are located? Can I charge with my Canvas Cover still on the boat ? I have a 2006 Nitro 750... The cover has an opening around the motor so there is some ventilation ?? Thanks in advance ! Quote
Super User BrianinMD Posted April 21, 2017 Super User Posted April 21, 2017 what kind of batteries? Quote
NitroTom Posted April 21, 2017 Author Posted April 21, 2017 Just 12 V one is deep cycle and the other is a Cranking for the motor ... Quote
Super User BrianinMD Posted April 21, 2017 Super User Posted April 21, 2017 flooded cell, agm? Flooded cell I would vent, having the cover on is fine but prop the lid open to the battery area. No concern on an agm. Quote
NitroTom Posted April 21, 2017 Author Posted April 21, 2017 I know they are no Maintenance Batteries ... and I know they are not a Gel Cell. Thank you for your replies and patience with me not knowing much about batteries.. Quote
S. Sass Posted April 21, 2017 Posted April 21, 2017 I have been charging mine with the cover on and off with the compartment closed for about a year with no issues. Quote
NitroTom Posted April 21, 2017 Author Posted April 21, 2017 Now I am not sure where I should mount it ?? I think I want to mount it on box with the X ?? Quote
