battery charger replacement

[Terry Neal]

Glenn,

I used 2 of the IOTA 45 amp, 3 stage chargers in my PT40. Real easy to
install, they use the new charging technology. I see them on eBay for
$150 or so. I installed them last fall, used the coach all winter on
shore power & only added maybe a 1/4 inch of water to them in the last
4-5 months.
