NOCO Battery Charger Mounting in AR195

[kindtampa]

Advice for mounting NOCO 2 Bank Battery Charger in my new AR195?

Thinking of installing opposite the battery switch, but I'm concerned about screw length. Open to other location ideas.

I mounted my Pro Mar two bank charger in the engine compartment up high in the carpeted panel behind the starboard rear seat back cushion. Not concerned about screw length there, as it's unused /hard to access space on the other side. There's a nice gap to run the battery cables through right there, and I just send the AC cord out through the vent hole under the swim deck seat back when I plug it in.

I'd post a picture, but my boat is away for the winter.

Not the best picture, but this is where I had my big ProMariner 300 in the 190. Worked great.

Here is where I installed my NoCo. Worked great......out of way and didn't have to worry where the screws did or didn't go

@CFD3Captain Do you remember if you used the mounting screws that came with the NOCO? Also did you have to pre-drill slightly smaller holes for the screws?

 

[CFD3Captain]

@kindtampa I don't remember predrilling the holes and I'm almost certain I used the included stainless screws. It would definitely be easier to predrill but it's tight quarters working there and I felt it was easier just to run the screw in. It's wood not fiberglass back there

Had any issues with engine heat and the charger?
