Great boat charger
This is a great charger from a great company but pay attention if you’re hardwiring it! Do not cut the wire before the rubber on the charging leads. That is a temperature sensor that is wired in with (2) 26 AWG wires. The charger won’t work without that. I did make that mistake and was able to splice it back in and shorten the wire as I’d like. Now it’s portable but it’s designed to be mounted and will charge all battery types without fuss. Super easy to use as well.

Good charger, could use longer leads
Super good battery tender. I mounted it in my 1997 F350 7.3 and it keeps the dual batteries charged perfectly. Finding a good place to mount it was rough cause of the length of the leads. Another foot of cable and it would have reach both batteries with no issue but I managed to get it on, it's just a little tough. The lights on it are easy to see and labels easy to understand. It functions how it should and makes long storage easy for the batteries.

Compact and Works great
Work well for onboard chargers in my boat. Don’t take up much room. Were easy to mount. Very pleased.

Great replacement the old branded battery tender plus
I used these for cars that sit in storage during winter. Compared to the battery tender plus it seems better built and charges faster. Appreciate the agm mode and the on off button. I would just leave it plugged in with the battery tender but this one one can actually turn it off without unplugging. Got it on sale and think it’s a great upgrade

Great tender.
NOCO is my go to. Have this mounted in a dual battery 2500 diesel. Works great. You may need to purchase post extenders if you have a side post battery like me.

Potential Issue w/ 1 Bank Failing For Some but Great Warranty
First off, this is my 6th NOCO product and all have been awesome. Great chargers, boosters, etc. Quality and performance has been superb! This GEN 5X2 forced me to have to use their customer service, warranty, etc. which has also been stellar. These GEN 5X2 dual bank chargers seem to have a common issue with one of the banks failing. One bank, mine was the second bank that failed, blinks between the charge bar and the standby lights. No matter the battery, the fuse, the connection, etc. A way to test it is to use a multi-meter to test for continuity between the positive and/or negative battery lead on that bank with the a/c power cord prongs - all disconnected, unplugged, no power, etc. The good bank will have some continuity like 36-37ohms. The bad bank will have nothing, pure open circuit. If it happens within the return with Amazon then use that. Otherwise, if its under the 3yr warranty then use no.co site to contact customer service for a warranty claim. Mine was after the 30 day return window. Initially buying it we only had one battery on our boat, knowing we were getting a second house battery. A couple months later we installed a second house battery on our boat and connecting the second charger bank, it immediately started the dreaded blink between the first charge indicator and the standby light, so that bank never worked. Not sure it is an immediate fail for others but was for ours. NOCO customer service was quick and easy. I reached out late at night with their request a call option on their website. The next day got a couple calls because I didn't have my phone near me, an email with troubleshooting steps, and next steps for a warranty claim. They'll let you ship it in and wait for a return after receiving and testing the failed unit. Or, they'll let you buy a replacement from their website - which was cheaper than here on Amazon - and refund the purchase once they've receive the return faulty unit and test it to verify the unit is faulty. I chose this option for a quicker replacement. 4 stars mainly for the unit failing but definitely love their products and am now a fan of their customer service. I'll follow up with review if the replacement unit fails and drop stars. If all is well, I think 4 is sufficient for an otherwise great product and company but consideration for this mishap.

In my boat now
Easy to install but the leads are not long enough if your trolling motor battery is in the bow and your crank battery is in the stern. The manufacturer did respond to my request for help and advised me on splicing in the required additional wire and said if I followed the instructions I would not void the warranty. It is I. My boat working well so far.

Excellent product that allowed me to resurrect 2 12v boat batteries that discharged below their minimum voltage. Installed on boat and now used as a charger and maintainer

Fitted this in my boat, (as it has 2 batteries). It's an extremely high quality product that keeps the batteries in tip top shape via the mains. I'll be hooking it up to a solar panel next, so I'll update here when I know the results.
