[QUOTE="Still Afloat, post: 508902, member: 32426"] I think you might be looking at the packaged weight. Data sheets indicate 4 and 15.5 pounds which is still plenty heavy. Hopefully that means bigger transformers with more copper. However, I expect that much of the weight is potting material to keep everything waterproof. I’m thinking of saving the 10x4 for the bigger boat and getting a 10x2 and a 5x2 for smaller boat. (10x 2 for the 100 A/hr, 5x 2 for the 50 A/hr and starter batt.). Unless the extra ballast is needed that would save a couple of pounds on the small boat and the new North River needs a charger anyway. [/QUOTE]
