Switching to Lithium
You need a converter/inverter that can be set to charge lithium and need to remove the alternator from charging them. Likely your inverter doesn't support lithium so you
Do I need to change my RV converter for lithium batteries?
Yes, most RV converters designed for lead-acid batteries require replacement when switching to lithium batteries. Traditional converters charge at lower voltages (13.6–14.1V) incompatible
Upgrading to Lithium Batteries: Should You Replace Your
A member considering a switch from lead-acid to lithium batteries asked whether to replace their WFCO WF--AD converter or invest in an inverter. Experienced RVers
RV converter upgrade to lithium | Thor Forums
Inverter can be any size, but I would match the one you are replacing so you don't have to change the wires. More amp draw would mean larger gauge cables, generally speaking.
What Components Need To Be Changed When
In general the best inverter for lithium batteries is one that is fully programmable. Our preference is the Victron line of inverters because they can be programmed for very specific voltage and charge profiles.
Upgrading to Lithium Batteries: Myths vs. Reality
Do I need to swap out my converter for a lithium converter? So, let’s look into that. I recommend having a lithium charger for your batteries—but you might already have one. I’ll tell you what to look for, but
What You Need to Convert Your RV to Lithium
In general, not every system needs an inverter in an RV with our batteries. Only AC-powered appliances and devices require an inverter. Ultimately, if you switch from lead-acid to lithium rv batteries in your
Do you really need a new converter for LiFePO4?
Short answer to your question is: you should be fine with your existing converter, but get the specs for its bulk mode to understand how to use it correctly. I did a couple edits. My
Is a New Converter Needed When Switching To Lithium Ion
In order to effectively charge lithium ion batteries you will need a converter designed specially for this purpose as the standard lead acid converter you have now will not work well.
Everything to Consider When Switching an RV to Lithium Batteries
Older RVs could require completely replacing the inverter/charger, while newer rigs may just need a setting change. This would most likely involve accessing a monitor/control
