NOCO chargers 30% off

[jtryon]

The plug was just $12.95 yesterday, IIRC. I should have bought one. Now it is $17.95.

I still have not received notice that mine has shipped. I guess in the age of Amazon Prime, I have become to accustomed to getting my stuff right away. I ordered it 5 days ago.

Anyone received theirs, or shipping notification?

My charger arrived today.

I sure will.
Basically tho, on some of the factory setups I have seen...they have a recessed plug located somewhere in the bow walk-thru and you just plug in the extension cord to start the charging system rather than having to open the observers seat and use the cord that connects to the actual NOCO charger to plug in the extension cord. What I will need to do, is drill a hole somewhere for the recessed plug to install it and hook it directly to the charger, that will make it easy to access for plugging in and make it look like a factory set up. Make more sense?

Here is a link for the accessory I ordered to make it work like this:

I like the NOCO shore power outlet over the promariner one. The promariner pinches the AC plug in place and they have a tendency to get pushed out the back of the outlet when you try and plug the extension cable in.

I have not gotten mine yet either, nor been notified that it shipped. Guessing they either had a lot of orders, or did not have many of the 3 bank setups like I ordered....
Hopefully I get it soon. I have been spoiled by Amazon's fast shipping too.

Infinity - After you install your power outlet could you post both exterior pictures of the outlet then pictures from under your observer's seat so I can see your charger and wiring placements. I'm thinking about doing the same installation on my G23 during my lay-up period this winter

Sure, I will do that. I am trying to figure out where to place it now. The spot over the batteries that I hoped it will fit is really tight and not sure I can make it work, and putting the NOCO in the other spot I found....if running wires in a way they are completely hidden, makes them a little too short to fit the battery terminals, so not quite sure what I am gonna do at the moment.
The power outlet is basically just a short cord (like maybe 8" total), the outlet has a flange and gasket that mounts in the hole you drill with a screwed on backer that will hold it in place. Then of course the NOCO plugs into the short section of the cord. If I can just find the right spot to mount the NOCO, it should be an easy install. The back of my wall under observers seat is covered with the amps and other speaker equip, above the batteries has the battery switch system...and then an inset cubby that protrudes into observers seat area which is why I just barely lack the room (height needed) to mount the NOCO there. The other spots that may work, I need to carefully investigate to be sure the screws that hold the NOCO wont puncture something important. When I have time to figure it out and mount tho, I will take pics and post

My NOCO actually showed up the day after I posted that too, so roughly 10 days to arrive on East Coast

any update on your install?

Actually I am having the NOCO installed this week. I took the boat in to MLA late last week so he could check out my REV-8 tower speakers and tune my system, I was getting some "popping" from the speakers and I think either there is something internal wrong with one of the speakers, or somehow the tuning got messed up. Anyway, I have been too busy to install the NOCO myself yet, so asked MLA to install it while he had the boat. I found a good spot under observers seat to mount the charger....for the recessed power outlet, I marked a place at the front face, of the built-in cooler to have that installed, since my gelcoat is black I figure it will blend well and I have also seen that area as a factory mounting location.
When I get the boat back in a week or 2, I will take pics of everything and post. Sorry for the delay, I expected to be able to get to the install pretty quick but work has been crazy and the time I did have in evenings, I have been trying to get my boat garage organized and all my ceiling racks and shelving kits installed. I moved into a new house I built about 4 months ago and the detached boat garage is the last thing I am trying to get all the loose ends finished on. With the boat gone in the shop, its the perfect time to get everything finished

GMLIII Sorry for the delay posting these pics, I just went to pick the boat up last night and got her home. I would like to take credit for how nice and clean this NOCO install is, but MLA did the install for me. Could not be happier with how it turned out looking! I bought the 12 amp, 3-bank NOCO for my 3 batteries under observers seat...and the accessory piece (extension cord plug in) is located on the front of the built-in cooler so the system can be plugged in without opening the seat. I have seen it located there from factory and since it seemed like a great place that would also blend in due to my black gel-coat, seemed like a great place. I got 2 pics of each, 1 close up and 1 from further back...if any more specific pics needed, let me know.

Looks great. So is the NOCO charger hooked up to your 3 batteries at all times?

Yes, thats how on-board chargers work. They are a permanent install and then plugged in to AC when boat is not in use.
