How Well Does Progressive Dynamics Converter/Battery Charger (60 Amp) Work with Lithium Batteries
Question:
Does this converter/charger really work well charging the LiPO4 batteries or would I be better off getting an inverter/charger? I am trying to upgrade some of these items on a budget for the summer weekends that we use the camper. Thoughts?

The Progressive Dynamics Inteli-Power RV Converter and Battery Charger part # PD9160ALV is actually designed exclusively for lithium (LiPO4) batteries so it will work great charging them. The built-in charge wizard provides the fast initial charge these types of batteries need and then drops down to a maintenance voltage of 13.6 volts.
I recommend going with a converter/charger as opposed to an inverter/charger mainly due to the cost savings.
