One Xantrex Charger for Two Battery Banks - Starter and House?

Question:

I am planing to upgrade the charger on my boat, since I have new CAT 153-5710 (2) 210 Ah flooded, sealed batteries, as the house bank, and a Crown' MAR-1000 starter battery ~75 Ah. Can I marry them with a Xantrex TC6012 charger? Is it not too much for the starter battery? Thank you kindly, Vlodek

Answer:

Thanks for reaching out to PYS.  The true charge 2 60A charger is a great choice for your application as the main power will be for the house and the secondary line can be used for the starter. We often setup charging systems this way.
