Reviews

Rated 4 out of 5 by FredInVA from Good But Cramped This is a review of the Battery Selector Switch (not the Master Switch). Here are the specs you need (but that BassPro does not list): Model: 701S Current: Continuous (1 hr): 200A Intermittent (5 min): 300A Cranking (10 sec): 1000A Very compact and very good switch feel when switching. Due to the terminal placement inside of the Battery Selector Switch, it's unlikely that all three battery cables can exit from the bottom. It's likely that one battery cable will exit from each side.That's the only reason why I knocked a star off There are two switches on this page and, as the description says, " NOTE: The Master Switch switches ON/OFF, while the Battery Selector Switch switches to battery 1, battery 2, both, and OFF." Please don't blame BPS if you order the wrong one.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Shaunt317 from Good buy Easy to install. There are slide covers on each side to route the wires any direction. My only complaint is the main connection on the switch to the boat electrical system was not big enough for the larger size wiring connectors. I ended up making a jumper from the switch to the boat electrical connectors.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Ringkitty from Needs more Instructions This unit needs more instructions. You need to have some knowledge about hooking up batteries because there is very little instruction, just a diagram on the package. Also needs to have hardware included. Other than that it worked great for what I needed it for. I wanted two batteries for my 12v trolling motor but I did not want to hook them up parallel. When one gets low I just turn the switch to the fully charged battery.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Later from efficient Very efficient size and sturdy for it's size. The one review I read is misleading. The guy was confusing the choices. The other switch is a shut off only. This one is as indicated, a choice between batteries, or both. It is exactly what I was looking for. The only fault I might have is that like a lot of things these days there are no wiring instructions. The buyer needs to understand battery connections.

Rated 4 out of 5 by DaveBoatGuy from BEP Switch Great switch. Very good manufacturer support. After 10 years the switch (all 3) broke actually crumbled in my hands. I guess they have a life expectancy to fail. The plastic gets brittle in a boat bildge. Replaced with teh same like and kind and moounted in original battery cluster. Tought to get all the buss bars lined up but very secure once mounted. great design for limited space applications.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Dougfish from BEWARE take a look at the picture it shows battery 1, off, and battery 2 and more than likely says both on the side you can't see that is not the switch you are going to get if you order this you are going to get a simple on off switch I emailed the service department to tell them but all I got in return was, well its a switch,

Questions & Answers

If my starter battery (#1) is dead, can I switch to trolling motor battery (#2) to start engine, and once engine started, and while it is still running, switch back to battery #1 to allow it to charge?

Asked by: IGuy

Thank you for choosing Bass Pro Shops. Per the manufacturer, we recommend never switching under load, but we also realize there may be times when this is necessary. You cannot switch from position 1 to 2. You can (but still not recommended) switch from 1 to 1 & 2, or from 2 to 1 & 2. When the engine is running, you always want to maintain a connection to a load, or you can damage either the alternator, and/or the switch. Switching from position 1 to 2 would require the switch to be in the off position prior to switching to #2.
