Think my battery charger is not working well. Only shows 2 amps when charging...SB battery is showing to be replace based on my battery tester...it is the one by itself, other bank is tied together in parallel. Don't understand the setup yet. I was trying to get a Pronautic 30AMP - 3 Bank, but they are very unavailable in Ontario. Will a 40AMP 3 Bank work in its place?

If anyone could explain clear how the battery banks are working that would be great. or Link to explanation...

Thanks

I assumed this amount was normal if your batteries are charged.

If my batteries were low because the charger was not on, I turn it on and shows a lot more amps on the charger gauge, along with a slow flash of the status light like this when I first got the boat:

Once they are fully charged, like right now, if I look at the charger I see more like 2-3 amps similar to you, and the status light is blinking fast.
