Will the Progressive Dynamics Converter/Smart Charger Work With 15 Amp Shore Power
Question:
Hi If I were to switch from a WF-8740-P to the recommend Progressive dynamics power center, PD4045KA please let me know if you recommend otherwise. Would it work with my existing 15 amp shore power and 20 amp breaker that is in my WF-8740-P it also has a second 15 amp breaker that I think powers the converter charger? Or would I have to step up to 30 amp shore power and 30 amp breaker inside the new PD4045KA. Would the PD4045KA put the same amps out to my new 100AH Lithium battery with either 30 amp shore with 20 amp breaker v.s. 15 amp shore 20 amp breaker? Thanks 2014 Taxa Cricket camper trailer 15 AMP shore power 100 AH AGM battery

Expert Reply:
Yes, the Progressive Dynamics Mighty Mini AC/DC Panel and Converter/Smart Charger # PD4045KA will work with your setup. However, I recommend upgrading to 30 amp power in order to be able to do more than just charge a battery. When it comes to the amps, the # PD4045KA is a smart charger so it will adjust accordingly when charging your Lithium battery.
