Inverter and Smart Battery Charger for RV with Smart Batteries
Question:
Looking at Progressive Dynamics converter and want to know if it is appropriate for my anticipated installation of 3 100ah Renogy smart batteries. Going into a Solitude fifth wheel. I also need the cables to hook batteries together, do you have those? Would be installing for as short a run as possible. Next ? ...I have the Renogy 200 w Solar suitcase, which is likely inaequate to maintain a full charge on 3 batteries, but will it be adequate to keep me one step aheadinch i.e. slow down battery drain?

Expert Reply:
Since you have smart batteries which are designed to communicate with smart battery chargers your better option is the Progressive Dynamics Inteli-Power RV Converter and Smart Battery Charger # PD924024A as it's designed for smart batteries. Then for cables to connect the battery bank you'd want the part # DW04362 for the positives and the # DW04365 for negative.
The Renogy 200 watt solar suitcase you have will do a great job keeping the batteries topped off and will minimize battery drain but it would not bring a dead battery bank back to life.
