Tech Talk - Master Volt Charging System
Today, we're discussing the features of the ChargeMaster Plus by Mastervolt, one of the latest offerings for Sportsman Boats. Specifically designed for boats ranging from 26 to 35 feet in length.
In recent times, there's been a notable surge in using center consoles, like our Open 352, for overnight boating adventures. Many boaters are taking these larger vessels on overnight trips, and even extended trips to places like the Bahamas. What makes these trips possible? Well, it's all about the amenities and smart technology on board; such as the ChargeMaster Plus from Mastervolt.
The ChargeMaster Plus is a 12-volt charger with a robust 50 amps distributed across three leads. Unlike traditional chargers, these leads are wired directly to the battery switch which allows for the entire battery bank to receive a charge.
As boating preferences evolve, so do the demands for onboard amenities. The growing popularity of Seakeeper Gyros, high-output stereos, and powerful AC units has created a need for more effective battery charging. This is where the Master Volt charger comes into play in an essential way. It provides optimal charging, ensuring that your batteries are ready for all the amenities and comforts onboard.
The standout feature is its ability to send 50 amps directly to one lead or distribute it evenly across all three. The charger intuitively identifies the battery's needs on each lead, optimizing the charging process and charging the depleted battery back up to a sufficient charge as well as maintaining it once at a full charge.
Another key feature of the Mastervolt system is a shore power outlet. For those who utilize in-water slips at their local marinas, providing direct access to shore power is key. This feature adds an unparalleled level of convenience. For those who don’t keep their boats in water, the system comes with an adapter. This adapter seamlessly connects to shore power and conveniently sports a 120 plug on the opposite end. This means you can effortlessly charge your boat both at home and from any standard outlet. It's a blend of accessibility and adaptability, ensuring a hassle-free charging experience wherever you are.
The Master Volt charger not only meets the increasing power demands of modern boats but also offers a more effective charging solution. It's a game-changer for those who want to enjoy extended stays on their center console boats without compromising on comfort or worrying about battery life.
