Just wondering about this. We've got a Pro Mariner Charger, 100 series, hooked to two different batteries.
We were charging them this evening, and the charger was EXTREMELY hot, to the point where we couldn't touch the charger for more than 3-4 seconds, much like when you try to take a hot bowl of soup out of the microwave without pot holders.
Anyways, I was wondering if anyone else has this charger, and if it runs quite warm when you're charging with it.
This was before we went fishing, and everything worked fine while we were out there, so I don't THINK we've got a bad battery, which is almost what it seems like, that we're trying to charge a short, hence the heat.
Don't take me wrong, I'm not anti-technology. Battery powdered items will always have their place. I'm mean you don't want your girl friend or wife in the bedroom playing for their gas powered adult toys!! That would be a bit loud and smokey!
That’s right. My 84 year old dad loves his electric chain saw. Light weight and quiet. Besides, at his age he’s not cutting a bunch. Where as myself I want something with more power and heavier duty. Look at how many people have switched back to gasoline cars after running one in winter if you travel a lot.
As long as my strike master works I’ll keep using gas. Maybe my next will be electric, but who knows, you can find used gas ones pretty reasonable as others buy electric.

Anyone else got a hot (not stolen) charger??
