Smart converter charger extends RV battery life by fighting sulfation during storage. Multistage charging process switches modes to ensure a quick, complete charge. Converts AC shore power to DC power to run 12V loads at the campground.
Features:
Specs:
The smart converter charger converts AC shore power into DC power and uses a multistage charging system to charge your battery bank. If your RV already has a stock converter charger, it will need to be removed to ensure this unit operates properly.
Using a multistage charging system, the converter charger automatically switches voltages while the battery bank charges. This accelerates the charge, but also helps extend battery life by adjusting the voltage during the different modes. This charger is compatible with flooded lead acid and AGM batteries only. Do not use gel cell batteries as they can be damaged by the higher voltages of this charger.
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. It has short circuit protection as well, which limits the current and reduces the output until the short has been fixed. Additionally, the over current protection includes cycle-by-cycle peak limiting and rated current limiting. The built-in cooling fan also removes excess heat from the unit. The fan speed is proportional to the internal temperature on the converter, so the fan will turn on and off slowly to minimize noise.
The smart converter charger mounts inside your RV in a dry location with ventilation. The DC output terminals wire to the battery bank. The AC in cord plugs into a 120V 3-wire grounded source.

It functios well. My only complaint is the cooling fan makes a high pitched whine when it runs. It's quite loud. .
At work from the day, I plugged it in still works great job
The product would have worked well with multiple modifications to the RV charger location, adding a DC ground to the RV frame, and modifications to the the charger attachment tabs to mount in the original charger location. After purchase and receipt of this charger I found a direct replacement of the original Parallax charger that would not require any modifications which I purchased and installed. I am keeping the Go power unit for a spare unit and charging our boat battery.
This was a replacement part, but an upgrade from what was in place. I used this because it has a fixed output and a four stage charger. It also has an adjustable voltage output. My client is a full-timer and stationary and connected to shore power. So the battery is rarely used. I like that I can easily toggle this to a fixed output, set the voltage, and disconnect the battery. Ironically, this was needed after I replaced the failed converter. The batteries went bad, so I just disconnected the batteries and didn't miss a beat. The batteries have a solar charger on them, so they stay topped off. Great product, but the adjustable function is something you should read about and understand before connecting this into your system.
It works perfectly the way it supposed to.
So far so good. Replaced an older 55 amp converter that stopped functioning. This will be hooked to shore power permanently and power all DC components, as well as charge the battery bank in a shower trailer. Hopefully it lasts!
Easy install and does a great job keeping my AGM batteries topped off.
Perfect replacement for original from rv factory. Old unit started 'fan whining' so I decided to replace it with this unit. Four screws, plug in and your done. Great product, great price, fast delivery!
Just hooked up and seems to work good
Has been working for about a year now, no problems, keeps battery charged and 12v items working
Exactly as stated worked perfectly with fast delivery
Working great no issues
Works GREAT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
