This RV power control center combines an AC/DC panel with a smart converter charger. Creating easy access to your electrical connections, this all-in-one breaker box distributes AC and DC loads to your RV and charges your batteries while connected to shore power. It's compatible with lithium and lead acid batteries.
AC/DC Electrical Distribution
The panel supplies AC and DC distribution to your RV's electrical system. The AC section includes space for up to 3 breakers rated for 120V at 30 amps. This lets you have up to 6 branch circuits when you use tandem breakers. The DC section has 12 branch fuse holders capable of using (2) 30 amp and (10) 20 amp fuses. However, you will need to purchase AC breakers and DC fuses separately to complete the installation.
Once all of your connections are made, the breakers and fuses are easily accessible by opening the door on the front of the box. The door also includes a blank label to list all of the connections.
Multifunctional Converter Charger
The integrated converter charger changes AC shore power into DC power to charge your battery bank. It includes an output mode switch that lets you choose either lithium or lead acid batteries. No matter what type of battery is installed in your RV, you'll always have the most efficient charging profile. If your RV already has a stock converter charger, it will need to be removed to ensure this unit operates properly.
Charging Profile Designed for Lithium Batteries
In lithium mode, the unit uses a higher output voltage, which provides a fast, complete charge. It also extends battery life since it utilizes the appropriate charging profile. Additionally, this mode is compatible with your battery's internal Battery Management System (BMS), which helps manage the charge cycle by monitoring the battery state and balancing cell voltage.
Charge Wizard for Lead Acid Batteries
In lead acid mode, the Charge Wizard automatically switches voltages while your lead acid battery bank charges. This accelerates the charge but also helps extend battery life by adjusting the voltage during the different modes. This function is compatible with flooded lead acid, AGM, and gel batteries.
Charging Modes
- Boost: This mode charges at the full rated load for a quicker recharge time. This is where most of the charging happens. It charges the battery up to 90% of the full capacity.
- Normal: This mode provides controlled voltage to ensure a full charge. Once the battery begins to reach capacity, the normal state will kick in and reduce the voltage to safely complete the charge.
- Storage: Once the battery reaches full charge and remains unused for 30 hours, this mode maintains a lower voltage to compensate for self-discharge. This reduces battery stress and minimizes gassing and water loss.
- Equalization: This mode activates to prevent stratification and sulfate buildup during extended storage cycles. These two issues can damage a battery by causing the accumulation of acid at the bottom of the battery and hardened sulfate crystals on the battery plates. This mode is especially helpful when your battery is going unused during storage.
Safety Features
The system includes a number of safety features. It has a reverse polarity protection that will protect the converter if the battery is hooked up incorrectly. Additionally, the unit includes protection for overvoltage, undervoltage, and overcurrent, which can damage your equipment, as well as the converter. The built-in cooling fan also removes excess heat from the unit. The fan speed is proportional to the internal temperature of the converter, so when the power demand is low, the fan will operate quietly.

It is not a direct replacement for the unit it replaced. I tried to install for a year, then spent $400 to have a shop run another wire (ground?) and install it. Seems to work ok for the week or so it's been in. Next time I'll make sure it's a direct replacement
by: Robert02/17/2024
I am very happy with the progressive dynamics RV converter. It was not hard to install because I was taking out an existing unit that was the same except it would not charge lithium batteries. I have not received my lithium batteries yet, but I'm hopeful it charges them. Well, I have no reason to think it won't. This unit is charging better than the one I took out..
by: John01/06/2024
I have always like buying from etrailer because the prices are reasonable, fast shipping and lots of information on their products.

Hooked the system up this evening and it didn't run anything.. didn't even power on.. no lights, no fan, no indicator lights ran directly from shore power..

Perfect, as always!
by: Casey01/14/2023
Works well and easy installation. I got it after I went with the lithium batteries so it will charge them properly.
Only con is that it doesn’t have LED lights beside each fuse like my old one did. So easy to see if you have a blown fuse with the lights.

This power center was easy to install and seems to be working well. However, the wiring diagram on the back of it is small and difficult to read. Maybe I am missing it, but there does not seem to be a buss to connect negative 12v wires to. I think I will have to purchase one separately and install it behind the cabinet the power center is attached to.

I upgraded from a WFCO factory unit and this one is WAY better. It treats my SLA batteries properly, which is the reason I got it, but it is also far quieter and does not run as hot. Beware though that it has a smaller footprint that the equivalent WFCO so I had to install a mounting stud on one side and figure out how to hide the bigger hole.

Shipment was lost in transit. E trailer reo handled it quickly and got a new one on the way.
by: Thomas 05/06/2020
Replaced my RV's existing unit with this one. The documentation provided was well written which made the install go smoothly. The unit is compact taking up much less space then the old one and I especially like that the access door opens to the side instead of swinging down like the old unit.
by: Roy12/09/2021
Quality is excellent but I ended up returning this and went with a separate PD5500 series panel and a Progressive Dynamics 60 watt converter. I did this because the PD5500 has two A/C bus bars that allow me to separate breakers that I only want powered by shore power from those I want powered on both shore and inverter power. The inverter has a built in transfer switch but installing it on a shared bus creates an unwanted loop.

by: Dennis10/12/2021
The converter arrived without its original packaging and in a box that was too small to protect it. It also did not contain any documentation or manuals. I use Progressive Dynamics converters all the time so I didn't want to rate the product poorly, but the packing and shipping was really awful
by: Don09/15/2021
The unit was as ordered,but packed very poorly for shipment (electronics) No padding,peanuts or even newspaper was used. The face and door were damaged due to careless and haphazard prep.
This is no way to ship equipment like this.

- Charging Lithium Trailer Batteries While DrivingYes, your solution is a DC to DC charger as there is not a "good" way to charge your 100Ahr trailer battery using your Tacoma's 7 pin connection only. You will get some low amperage trickle-charge while hooked up and the alternator running, but not enough to fully charge your trailer battery. For systems where your trailer batteries are rated for 75-200 Amp-hours, use the Redarc # 331-BCDC1225D 25-Amp, Dual-Input DC-DC Charger. You will additionally need three Redarc # 331-FK40, 40-Amp...

- Can Inverters Be Used With Progressive Dynamics Power CentersYes, you can use a 3000w Inverter with transfer switch like part # 34275013 and still use it with your Progressive Dynamics Mighty Mini AC/DC Panel and Converter/Smart Charger # PD4060K. The inverter is going to require you to have two separate AC bus bars. Since the # PD4060K only has one you'll need to get an AC subpanel. Your AC in on the inverter will connect to a circuit breaker on the main panel ( # PD4060K) and the AC out will go to a circuit breaker on the sub panel. When connected...
