I just finished wiring up my trailer lights on my '98 Ford Windstar, while I was down there we ran 8 gauge wire to a batter box that sits under my storage area on the back of the van. I was planning on using that so that I could recharge the battery for my trolling motor. After we had everything in place it occurred to me that a marine battery might not be able to take the same type of charge i.e. speed, that a car batter takes.
Can you guys offer any advice? Is it okay to charge a marine batter with a car alternator?
