  • **Three-Stage Charging:** Optimizes battery health and longevity with bulk, absorption, and float/rest stages for a complete and efficient charge every time.
  • **Emergency Paralleling:** In an emergency, manually combine batteries for a jump start, providing peace of mind on the water. (Requires optional switch)
  • **Battery Temperature Compensation:** Adjusts charging voltage based on battery temperature, maximizing battery life and performance in all conditions.
  • **Start Isolation:** Protects sensitive electronics from voltage sags and spikes during engine starting.
