Just curious if anyone else has experienced this. On my 2013 PII, the NOCO charger (mounted on interior transom wall) has one mount loop broke. The mount on the left side is fine but the right one (plastic loop type mount) broke completely off and now the charger is resting with a lean and hanging on for dear life with one bolt attached. Has anyone experienced this? Any simple (and more sturdy) solutions? Should this be covered in the 3 year warranty? Any help would be appreciated. My dealer is over an hour away and with work, work, and more work, itl a while before I can get it to the dealer.

I have seen it three different times on boats in our shop. Your best option is to contact Noco directly and explain the problem to them. They must have meant for those chargers to be mounted to the bottom of boats instead of against the transom or else they have a terrible design in using plastic where you anchor the charger. The newer chargers have been redesigned and are much better for mounting to the transom. Maybe Noco will help you with an upgrade.

Mine broke just after the 3 year point. I removed it from the transom, sealed all the holes. I bought some giant zip ties from Lowes and attached it to one of the battery holders. I has been fine for over a year now. RH

When I mounted mine, I used industrial velcro. I covered the back of the entire unit and stuck it on the transom. 9 years later, still there with no screw ever installed and it hasnt slipped off once!
