Expert Reply:
The Progressive Dynamics Inteli-Power RV Converter and Battery Charger part # PD9160ALV as you mentioned does not come with the smart system aka Charge Wizard. The smart system is for non-lithium batteries and is essentially a system that adjusts voltage based on an input obtained from the battery bank.

In summary, the smart system is not needed nor will it work for lithium batteries.

Do you sell this item? If I used the smart system for my lead acid batteries could I still use the charger converter for the lithium ion batteries. Would I need a disconnect ?
