Features to know about

What a Power Center Does When Everything Feels Off

PowerMax 30A power center and distribution panel held by human for scale.

When batteries stop charging, lights flicker, or 12V systems behave unpredictably, the power center is often the source of the problem. This unit brings AC power in, distributes it to your RV's circuits, and converts it to 12V DC power for lights, appliances, and battery charging. When it's working properly, everyday systems feel stable again instead of acting strangely under load.

Does This Converter Work with Lead Acid and Lithium Batteries?

This power center works with common RV battery types, including lithium, AGM, and lead acid batteries, but not all batteries are meant to be charged the same way. When set to the 3-stage charging mode, the converter cycles through boost, normal, and storage voltages to recharge and maintain lead acid and AGM batteries during use and storage. For lithium batteries or setups that need a specific charging voltage, the adjustable output mode lets you manually set a fixed voltage based on your battery manufacturer's recommendations. This gives you control over how the battery is charged, helping avoid undercharging during use and unnecessary stress during longer hookups.

Fast Answers When Something Stops Working

Electrical issues rarely announce themselves clearly. LED indicators at the DC fuse panel identify blown fuses right away, making it easier to track down why a light, outlet, or appliance stopped working. Built-in protection against overheating and reverse polarity helps reduce the chance that small wiring mistakes turn into bigger problems.

Designed to Manage Heat and Noise

Converters generate heat under load, especially when charging depleted batteries. A temperature-controlled fan responds as needed, helping manage internal heat while avoiding constant fan noise. This supports safer operation and a quieter living space, especially during overnight use.

When You Might Need A Professional Install

The lightweight design mounts within the housing and includes pre-wired DC circuits to help streamline installation, but if you'd like help with the install, you can use etrailer's installer locator to find a qualified installer near you.

Video Transcript for Review of PowerMax RV Power Converter - Converter and AC/DC Panel - PM47VR

Hi everyone, Steven here with Etrailer. Today we're looking together at our PowerMax 30 Amp RV Power Center and Distribution Panel. It's a 45 amp version and it's a DC converter. Now folks, this is a 30A RV power center with a 12 volt distribution center and 45A DC converter. And as you can see, you can simply push on the front. The spring loaded panel is gonna give you access then to the inside where you have everything there as far as your readouts, plugging everything in to customize it for your needs.

Coming around the back, you got all the wire connectors as far as the back and everything for wiring it into the RV. And then again, back on the front, you have a label here as well where you can write down all those different connections. And this is a kind of like a clear, if you will, see-through kind of tinted screen there. And again, it's just a spring load box there, front lid rather, and then, of course, you have all your different cutout options here, pop outs, the round ones there, if you so need to pop anything out to run things inside as well. So they did a really good job as far as what I can tell and see everything as far as durability of the plastic and just how they did everything here and labeled everything as well as far as how to use it and those kind of things.

The bottom, just more plastic. As far as some dimensions from the front, overall outside to outside, 14 inches long as far as a height, 11-3/4" and a depth, 8-1/2" deep. Now the cutout from the back, the cutout's a lot smaller, obviously 12-1/8" long. And then the height on that cutout is 11 inches tall. And then that's gonna be the cutout dimensions as far as the rectangular that you would need.

Now this is lightweight, it's easily mount within the housing with the pre-wired DC circuits. The LED lights again on the front are gonna indicate blown out DC fuses. And it has a temperature controlled fan, so it's gonna run nice and quiet whenever it's being used. It's got a built-in three stage charging and single output modes and you can adjust them as well. And of course it's compatible with AGM, lead-acid, and lithium batteries.

Folks, I'm Steve with etrailer that's gonna wrap up our quick look together at this Power Max 30A RV Power Center Distribution Panel. Have a good one.

  • Replacement Converter Panel for 1985 Fleetwood Avion 34W
    Hey Jake, the lower converter PD4645V that you referenced is not compatible with what you have now as it's much older. Only solution we have would be an all new distribution panel like the PowerMax # PM47VR. This is a 45 amp distribution panel. I wish there was a way to keep using the glass fuse setup you have but at this time there isn't a way to do that.
