Features:

StayNCharge Tow'N'Charge

The TowNCharge allows you to charge up to three trolling batteries while you tow to and from the water.  Arrive at home or at your favorite lake with a full charge.

The TowNCharge extends battery life by allowing you to start charging immediately after pulling the boat out of the water.  If used in combination with the All Charge, it allows you to continue charging after pulling the boat out of the water.

StayNCharge TowNCharge with 7 Prong Plug 

The 7 prong plug system can be used on all 1999 and newer trucks that are equipped  with factory the 7 prong plug at the back bumper. This system comes with everything you need except the factory fuse or relay depending on the make and model truck (Owners need to either check the owners manual or contact there dealer and ask them to check and make sure the system is activated. Or you can use a volt meter at the back of the truck and find the markings on the cover door of the 7 prong plug and it shows you were the voltage should be. You need to test that circuit with the truck running to make sure it shows of 13 to 14.4vdc.  If there is no voltage or it is under 13vdc then the truck either needs a fuse or a relay that the truck came from the factory with installed. Check with your dealer if needed.


Ways to use the Tow N Charge
The Tow'N'Charge can be used several different ways.

1. To charge any12vdc battery from the tow vehicle while sitting idle or running down the road such as jet skies, boat battery, race car while on trailer or any other type of vehicle.
2.  The system can be hooked to any 12vdc trolling battery directly to the battery or most boats that have the trolling battery in the back of the boat and the trolling motor in the front of the boat can be modified with a trolling motor plug that matches the one on the trolling motor and when you get ready to go down the road you can simple unplug the trolling motor and hook the Tow'N'Charge directly into the bow boat plug and the unit will charge the trolling battery through the same wire used to run the trolling motor.
3. The Tow'N'Charge wire can be hooked from the tow vehicle to the starting battery on the boat and used with the Stay'N'Charge AllCharge  12/24 and the 24/36 to charge all the batteries on the boat while driving down the road.  Note: When using the Tow'N'Charge, with either of the AllCharges, the system will always charge the starting battery on the boat before the AllCharge will cycle on and start charging the trolling batteries. The AllCharge always makes sure the boats cranking battery is charged first.

Note: The Tow'N'Charge for the vehicles that have to use the system that hooks to the tow vehicles starting battery direct needs to be unhooked from the boat when left sitting for long periods of time. If the boat has the power left on and it is still hooked to the truck there is a chance the boat could drain the battery on the tow vehicle as well.

The tow vehicles that are hooked through the factory 7 prong plug do not have to worry about this because that circuit will not be open when vehicle is not running.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How many volts/amps is the unit providing to the batteries?
The amps are given to each battery as they request it no more or no less. We are only charging when the batteries do not have any load on them so the take what they need to come back to a full charge.

2. I have a 24v trolling motor.  Which unit should I buy?
If you are not going to upgrade to a 36volt motor in the future then you will use the new 12/24 volt All Charge for charging from the outboard or a single bank charger from the dock or home.

3. I have a 36 v trolling motor and 3 batteries.  Can I use your unit?
Yes, you will need the All Charge 24/36 to charge from the outboard or a single bank charger from the dock or from home.

4. I have a 36v TM and 4 batteries.  Which unit should I buy?
You will need the  All Charge 24/36 to charge from the outboard or a single bank charger from the dock or from home.

5. Can I keep my onboard charger connected and still use the 24v All Charge?
With the new 12/24volt All Charge you do not have to unhook anything from the onboard charger to use the AC charger but we recommend that if you have a charger hooked to the All Charge input side and the output side that the charger on the input side should be unhooked or the input grey plug on the All Charge should be unplugged.  If using the Stayncharge Tow N Charge wiring harness the tow vehicle will always charge the starting battery on the boat first so there is no need to have an onboard charger hooked to the starting battery on the boat.

6. Can I keep my onboard charger connected and still use my 36v All Charge?
NO.  If the onboard charger is hooked to the input of the All Charge 24/36 and the outputs at the same time the All Charge will be inoperable.  If the onboard is only hooked to the three trolling batteries (and not the starting battery) then nothing has to be unhooked.

7. How does your product differ from Stealth, Minn Kota, Toll Bridge?
The Stayncharge systems work nothing like the Stealth, Minkota or the trolbridge.  These products either put all the batteries in parallel and charge them all at once or  charge the batteries in series at the same time(which is going to cause more heat in a battery compartment that already has too much heat). The Stayncharge systems only charges one battery at a time in two minute cycles which allows each battery to take the amps they require at a much higher rate than the others, and most importantly the Stayncharge systems never generate any heat

8. How long will it take to charge my trolling motor batteries while I am running on the water?
All situations are different , but after eleven years and thousands of units on the water, the best example we have is if you go out in the morning and your batteries are full, and you have a 150 or bigger outboard, for every hour you troll on high it will take 10 minutes to bring a 24volt system back to full. Now other companies will tell you that their systems will do this, regardless of the situation.    Every angler fishes differently and all motors and batteries are different, so the results may vary.  The most important thing to remember is  that  the Stayncharge products will give you more productive time on the water without worrying  about your batteries going dead.

9. Are the Stayncharge units water proof?
The Stayncharge units are water resistant however we do recommend not submersing them in water  for any length of time.   

10. What is the optimal configuration to run? (ie. What onboard charger or portable)
Everyone has their  favorite make of AC charger that can be used with our products, but high dollar systems are not normally better then a single bank charger from Walmart or Sears, as long as it is a smart charger that automatically step down as the batteries  are brought up to a full charge.   

11. Can the units overheat and cause a fire?
Our number one goal when designing the system was safety.  The systems have built in thermal protection, as well as circuit breakers that prevent them from ever having any heat problems.

12. Will my batteries charge quicker running through the All Charge and an external charger?
The All Charge is only as good as the charger you are using with it. Some AC units shut down when they read close to full charge and never come back on. The best alternative to using an external charger is to use the Stayncharge with the Tow N Charge and you should never need an AC charger.
