Product Description
Maximum Trolling Power Without the Extra Bulk
For serious anglers, the transition to a 36V trolling system is a game-changer for power, but it usually comes with a catch: more batteries and more weight. The Ionic Lithium 12V to 36V Transfer Charger solves this problem by turning your boat’s main engine into a portable generator for your trolling motor.
Instead of relying solely on the charge you got at the dock, this DC-to-DC charger works while you are moving. Every time you fire up your big motor to head to a new spot, this unit "transfers" power from your 12V starter system to your 36V trolling batteries. This keeps your system charged throughout the day, allowing you to stay on the water for long center console trips without worrying about your power levels dropping.
This "charge-on-the-fly" technology is a must-have for those who fish in difficult conditions. When you're fighting high currents or heavy winds, your trolling motor works harder and drains faster. This charger provides that extra boost to keep you stable and locked into your favorite fishing hole.
Compact Design, Professional Results
At just 2 pounds and roughly 7 inches long, this charger is incredibly compact. It fits easily into your boat’s existing battery compartment, saving you space for other gear. Installation is straightforward and designed to integrate seamlessly with your current 12V and 36V setup.
Important Note: This unit is designed for safety. It will only begin charging your 36V system once your 12V starter battery is fully charged and your engine is providing at least 30A of charge. Your ability to start your engine and get home is always the priority.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does this save weight on my boat?
By charging your batteries while you run your engine, you can often use smaller, lighter batteries and still get the same amount of fishing time as someone with much larger, heavier batteries who isn't charging on the go.
Is this safe for my alternator?
Yes. The Ionic Transfer Charger is engineered to work within the limits of your boat's existing electrical system and will only pull power when the system has a surplus.
Does it work with all 36V batteries?
It is optimized for use with high-quality lithium and lead-acid systems. It provides a steady 10A charge to ensure your 36V bank is ready for action.
