Product Overview

Charge Underway. Fish Longer.

The essential boat upgrade that allows you to charge your 36V trolling motor battery from your engine’s alternator on the go! While underway, your alternator’s excess power redistributes from your starting battery so you get an extra boost, and better battery life for your trolling motor. 

How it works: With state of the art technology, the ABYSS® On-Board Alternator Charger applies 10A of on-demand charging voltage to your 36V battery so it only receives the charging current it needs to replace energy that has been consumed. This smart charging system also works to ensure your cranking battery voltage will not fall below 13.3V, making it a safe and reliable way to keep your trolling motor or aux batteries charged and ready to go.

Absolutely amazing! I was tired of plugging my battery charger in when the boat was at the dock. A friend told me about this charger so I did some research. Called up the company and they were incredibly helpful. Bought the charger and installed it in less than an hour. First trip I used up almost the whole battery with my Spot Lock and by the time I got back to the dock it was fully charged. Highly recommended! Thanks Abyss for your incredible product!!!

We had our on-board alternator charger stop working just before a fishing tournament in SW Florida, called Abyss customer service, they help diagnose the problem and they overnighted a replacement in time for our tournament. Products and service are second to none. Customer service folks are some of the finest. Jack Conroy, Dialed in Fishing.

excellent addition for any trolling motor battery. Allows the engine to charge the lithium trolling motor batter when the engine is running. Stayed in the keys for a week and used my trolling motor every day for a long time and we never had to plug it in to recharge the battery because the Abyss on board charger kept it topped off on our daily runs.

This is straight from our customers email.

“Fished all day last Friday. Sat on one spot king fishing for about 6 hours straight. It wasn’t really windy, but pretty good current. For kicks I checked the ABYSS battery before we were leaving and it was at 98%! By the time we got home and everything cleaned up, I checked again and 100%. I honestly don’t think you could run it out in a day including an overnight. The trolling motor never budged from the spot either. I will be curious when we get into some 2 footers and wind how she does, but so far I am impressed.”

Don’t get any better.

I’ve been using abyss for a few years now and have watched them grown in technology. As a guide for the last 15 years my trolling motor is an essential tool for my day to day operation. Anysa batteries are a huge part of that as I have the power and knowledge (via app) to know how my day is gonna go. I get 2-3 days on a full charge of heavy use. And then once I added the charge on the go I haven’t plugged my charger in since. Great product and top notch h customer server. I’ve been an abyss guy since they started and will continue until I end my career.

Great option for my Boat

I do not have access to shore power on a regular basis so having the on board charger is an excellent alternative for my situation.
