I wanted to keep my batteries on my Thomas FS65 School Bus charged and topped off at all times so I installed the NOCO Genius GEN5X2, 2-Bank, 10A Smart Marine Battery Charger and the NOCO GCP1 15A AC Port Plug, 125V Power Inlet Socket.
So far, it has kept my batteries topped off while I'm building out the bus and not driving it. I hope you enjoyed this NOCO unboxing and installation!

Hole Saw < is the common term for the cutter that makes holes!
Ah! Yes. Thanks!
Do you have the press the power button on battery charger?
Curious on you plug and unplug
IMPORTANT !!!!! FYI
Thank you for contacting NOCO Support.
The GENM1-3 Mini and GEN1-4 chargers did not have over voltage sensors, so you could connect a charging bank to each 12V battery in your battery bank, whether it was wired in series or parallel, without disconnecting the batteries from each other.
The GEN5X and GENPRO10X chargers do have over voltage sensors, so you can connect a charging bank to each 12V battery in your battery bank wired in series without disconnecting the batteries from each other, but cannot do so if the batteries are wired in parallel. For batteries connected in parallel, you can only charge all of the batteries in that battery bank with a single charging bank unless they are disconnected from each other before charging and then separate banks can be used for each battery.
Thanks
Add a rubber mat under the batteries. This will stop batteries discharging. Even setting batteries on concrete will slowly drain batteries.
You gained nothing by using a 2 bank 5 Amp charger in parallel. You could have just used a 10 Amp single Bank charger.
