Bass Pro Shops XPS i 5/5/5 Charger, July 18, 2006
By RatherBeFishing from New Jersey

"I replaced a previously installed 2 bank charger 3 months ago with the XPS i 5/5/5 and am glad I did. I bought the ProMariner Cable extension kit (15') with it so I can have the convenience of having my starting and trolling batteries charged overnight all at once and without the need of using a portable charger.

Pros -
1. Solid, well made unit.
2. Clear and easy to follow instructions.
3. Great "Go Fish Indicator" feature.

Cons -
1. None !

I highly recommend this model and would buy it again.

The total installation time was a few hours since I had to remove a panel and drill a couple of holes to snake the extension cable kit to the rear starting battery. Easy installation overall though.

Not so happy with this product!, November 20, 2009
By HiTekRDNK from Virginia

Disadvantages: Performance, Quality

"Bought and installed the 4/4 back in January. Started noticing little things during the summer with it. Pulled it and my batteries out of my boats for winter storage (was going to use it as my trickle charger for all my batteries over the winter).

Everything looked fine when I first hooked it up, then checked on it later and all of the lights were flashing and batteries started loosing charge.

Sent it back to ProMariner, waiting to see what I will get back (new charger or repaired)!

I expected more out of something with the Bass Pro name on it.

YA WON'T GO WRONG, November 10, 2009
By 12pointbucks from Crossville, AL.

Advantages: Design, Features, High Quality, Value for money, ease of use to maintain your batteries

"Hey yall just bought the xps-i 5-5-5 series to charge my 3 batteries. 2 troll and 1 crank. Took about 30 minutes to wire in and just plug in the 110 cord and forget it. Came back in overnight and all three batteries fully charged. No more worries about overcharging or chargers cutting off early.A great way to keep them maintaned in between trips, with the go fish light you know your ready.Compact design although put it where it can get some air, unit gets very hot in the initial charge to get your batteries hot. Great info included,McFly proof. Glad i footed the extra bucks for the 3 bank. (good fishing)."

Won't last, July 21, 2009
By firedog978

Advantages: Design
Disadvantages: Quality

"I originally purchased /installed the XPS 4/4 (2 bank) in January '09. Installation was easy and quick. Initially, the unit worked fine. Quick enough charging and took the batteries to full every time. Priced right also to fit a budget.
After 6 months it failed. I am not sure what was wrong but, it kept blowing in-line fuses for the trolling motor lead. The fuses would blow immediately! I went through 3 fuses in less than 5 minutes untill I disconnected the leads from the charger from the trolling motor battery. Ran the trolling motor all day after that with no issues. I took it back to BPS and upgraded to a different make. BPS was great about it and I was actually told that some issues exist with the XPS brand. It seems they don't last and have many issues with them.

BPS needs to as someone else said, dump this charger and put their good name on a better, well made charger.

WORTHLESS JUNK, June 27, 2009
By cf4395 from Virginia

Advantages: easy to install
Disadvantages: Performance, Quality

"Do not waste your money on these worthless chargers. Yes, it came with a 2 year warranty. My first one only lasted a year. It was replaced with a new one, but, the warranty of course was not renewed. The second one only lasted a year and the warranty had run out by then. I am really shocked that Bass Pro Shop would be affiliated with a product of such poor quality. I would not be surprised to see Bass Pro have a closeout on these chargers and clear their good name from such junk."

Bass Pro XPS 5/5/5, June 3, 2009
By Jammer200 from Tennessee

Advantages: Design, easy to use

"I purchased the 3 bank 5/5/5 charger for my bass boat. Easy to install, took about an hour total. Hooked up two trolling batteries hooked in series and one starting battery. You don't have to remove the jumper wire in a 24-volt system to charge.

Easy to use - just plug it in and it does the rest.

Every boat should have one.

Durability Issues, May 21, 2009
By NXSCT

Disadvantages: Performance, Quality, unreliable

"I have purchased two of the 5/5/5 units in the past three years. Both of them failed within 18 months. I use my bass boat for tournaments and both times when the units failed I was out of town without a charger. They just aren't reliable enough and both failed without warning. I believe I will go back to the Guest model that originally came with my boat."
