Typical Leading Competitive Charging Output
Distributed-On-Demand ™ Multi-Stage Charging Output
Competitive chargers have an amp
limitation per bank. As illustrated the
(5/5) 10 amp charger can not transfer
the unused 3 amps not required by
the engine start battery, leaving only
a maximum of 5 amps for the trolling
motor battery.

Distributed-On-Demand ™ Charging Versus Standard Chargers.
ProSport's "Distributed-On-Demand ™ " feature will automatically distribute 100% of its
available charging amps of 8, 12 or 20 amps (model specific) to any one battery or combination
of all batteries. This feature ensures all available charging amps are used, unlike other 2 and
3 bank On-Board Chargers with a fixed amp limit per charger bank / DC output cable.
Distributed-On-Demand ™ Technology Advantage versus Leading Fixed Amp per
Bank Chargers
Note: Above illustration reflects typical battery usage after a day of fishing.
Trolling motor batteries are 50% discharged and not usable. Engine start battery
is 90% charged from the engine charging system.

Charging Batteries
The ProSport Series is designed to charge, condition, and maintain your batteries. Please follow
these steps each time you use your ProSport Charger:
1. Open all battery compartments and ventilate for at least 15 minutes before applying AC power to
your charger. While charging your batteries make sure to keep your battery compartment open
allowing for free air ventilation.
2. Make sure all DC battery connections are tight and clean. Follow battery manufacturer's
recommendations for battery cell caps. (loosen caps if applicable)
3. Connect a heavy duty UL approved extension cord to the ProSport Charger first. After connecting
the extension cord to the charger, proceed to plug the extension cord to a nearby 120VAC GFCI
protected (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupt) outlet.
4. Assuming your batteries are discharged, and your ProSport is factory set for Flooded
(Lead-acid) batteries, you should observe ProSport's Blue AC POWER LED Turn On, followed
by the Red Charge LED and RED Battery Type LED Turning On (red is the factory setting of
Flooded (Lead-acid)/AGM type batteries).
5. The Sequential Multi-Stage Charging Process is complete when only the Green READY LED
and the Blue AC POWER LED will remain on indicating that your batteries are fully charged and
are being maintained with a precision 13.4 Volts DC Finishing Voltage(Factory set charge profile for
Flooded (Lead-acid / AGM Batteries). ProSport’s Ready/Maintenance Mode is perfect for short or
long term storage and will never overcharge your batteries.
Performance Tip: For long term or winter storage/maintenance of batteries, ProMariner
recommends that every 30 days: AC power is removed by unplugging your extension cord at the
GFCI outlet first, Check Battery Electrolyte levels. Re-apply AC Power to your ProSport Charger.
This practice will properly maintain your batteries resulting in extended battery life and use.
6. When you are ready to use your boat, unplug your extension cord at the GFCI outlet first,
followed by unplugging the charger.

Competitive 5/5 10 amp charger
ProSport's Distributed-On-Demand ™
Charging Technology ensures 100% of
the available charging amps are fully
utilized to meet the demand of each
battery on-board. Let’s say your engine
start battery only needs 2 amps from
your “ProSport 12” (6/6) 2 bank charger;
No problem. The unused 4 amps will
be automatically Distributed-On-
Demand
™ to battery bank #1 providing
a total of 10 amps to the trolling motor
battery versus only 5 amps that the
conventional 5/5 charger would
provide. The competitive 5/5 charger
has a 5 amp limit per bank .
