This converter charger converts AC shore power into DC power and charges your battery bank. If your RV already has a stock converter charger, it will need to be removed to ensure this unit operates properly.
Charging Operation
During the charging process, the charger senses your battery bank's voltage and decreases the current as it reaches full charge. This decrease helps prevent overcharging, which can damage the battery. It is compatible with flooded lead acid, AGM, and gel batteries.
The available Charge Wizard (sold separately) upgrades the converter charger to automatically switch voltages while the battery bank charges. This accelerates the charge, but also helps extend battery life by adjusting the voltage during the different modes. The Charge Wizard simply connects to the TCMS port on the back of the converter charger.
Safety Features
The system includes a number of safety features. It has a reverse polarity protection that will protect the converter if the battery is hooked up incorrectly. Additionally, the unit includes protection for overvoltage, undervoltage, and overcurrent, which can damage your equipment, as well as the converter. It also has GFCI protection that shuts off power when there is a current imbalance. The built-in cooling fan also removes excess heat from the unit. The fan speed is proportional to the internal temperature on the converter, so when the power demand is low, the fan will operate quietly.
How It Installs
The converter mounts horizontally inside your RV in a dry location with ventilation. However, as long as the unit has sufficient ventilation, it can also be mounted vertically. The mounting hardware is not included.
The DC output terminals wire to the battery bank. The AC in cord plugs into a 120V 3-wire grounded outlet.

Received the PD9145A and installed it with no problem.. checked to see if it was working and it is changing the batteries so far so good.. the small size is a great feature being it was used in a small compartment in my motor home.. I want to thank everyone at Etrailer for helping me decide on this type of CHARGER.

Just what i ordered and works great.
by: RD Crab03/17/2022
Delivery was on the slow boat from China. Package got here when it said it would. No damage on package. Remove from box tested charges like it's supposed to. I sure hope I get many years of great use out of this item. Price was half the cost of a local RV dealership. You just can't beat that!

- Does Progressive Dynamics Converter Need to be Replaced if it Does Not Charge BatteriesHas your Progressive Dynamics Converter, like part # PD9145A, worked previously or is this the first time that you've hooked it up and it isn't working properly? If this is the first time you've hooked it up then we can check your installation. If you've been using this for a while then we can still check the installation but you might need to replace it if it's been through a lot of use. If you need to replace it then I would go with the same model # PD9145A. Progressive Dynamics has...

- Correct Progressive Dynamics RV Converter and Battery Charger - 45 Amps for Lithium BatteriesThe Progressive Dynamics Inteli-Power RV Converter and Smart Battery Charger - 12V - 45 Amps part # PD9245C is not compatible with lithium batteries. Instead, you will need the Progressive Dynamics Inteli-Power RV Converter and Battery Charger part # PD9145ALV which is the lithium version of the above converter/charger.
view full answer... - Recommended Replacement For An Elixir 45 Amp Converter Charger You can replace your Elixir 45amp converter charger with either the Progressive Dynamics Inteli-Power RV Converter and Battery Charger - 12V - 45 Amps # PD9145A (flooded lead acid, AGM, and gel batteries) or the Progressive Dynamics Inteli-Power RV Converter and Battery Charger - Lithium - 12V - 45 Amps # PD9145ALV (lithium batteries). If you wanted to replace/upgrade your distribution panel then I recommend the Progressive Dynamics Mighty Mini AC/DC Panel and Converter/Smart Charger...
view full answer... - Can a 45 amp Converter Charger Be Replaced With a 30 amp Converter Charger Yes, you can use the Progressive Dynamics Inteli-Power RV Converter and Battery Charger # PD9130 to replace your current PD9145. This converter/battery charger has less amps. The draw back to that would be that you have less power going to the batteries which will slow the charge process. Depending on the size of your battery bank, this may not impact you too much. We would recommend replacing your current PD9145 with a similar rated system like the Progressive Dynamics Inteli-Power RV...
view full answer... - What is Difference Between Progressive Dynamics PD9130 and PD9145AThe Progressive Dynamics Inteli-Power RV Converter and Battery Charger # PD9130 is a 30 amp converter whereas the # PD9145A is a 45 amp converter. If you went with the 30 amp option you'd be lowering your amperage by 15 amps but it would technically still work assuming you didn't need the additional amperage.
view full answer... - Replacement for a WFCO Converter - WF-8845We do have a solution available for you. I suggest you replace your current inoperable WF-8845 with a Progressive Dynamics option as these are solid and reliable units that are very cost effective. The 12VDC, 45 Amp, Inteli-Power RV Converter and Smart Battery Charger, # PD9245C matches well to the specs of your current WF-8845. This unit will work with flooded lead acid, AGM, and gel batteries but has the advantage over the WF-8845 being equipped with a smart charger. This mode is especially...
view full answer... - Can Progressive Dynamics Converter be Power From GeneratorYes the Progressive Dynamics Inteli-Power RV Converter and Battery Charger - 12V - 30 Amps # PD9130 can be powered with a generator. This is rated for up to 30 amps though and not up to 60 amps. For a similar setup rated for 60 amps would be part # PD9160A.
view full answer... - Replacement For A Phillips Converter PC-301-A-1 In A 1976 Coachman LeprechaunTo replace your Phillips PC-301-A-1 Converter, I recommend the Progressive Dynamics PD9100 Series Battery Converter Charger # PD9145A. This is a 45 amp converter with virtually identical input/output as your old Phillips unit. You will have to add a receptacle in order to use this converter. As far as specs this will be a suitable replacement. As a matter of fact, this will be a pretty big upgrade from a 1970s converter.

- Converter to Replace the Magnetek Series 900 Model 950The Magenetek Series 900 model 950 was a 50 amp converter so a great option to replace it and get a little more amperage would be the 60 amp Progressive Dynamics Inteli-Power RV Converter and Smart Battery Charger # PD9260C. This is a great unit that will work wonderfully to replace your Magnetek. It has a Charge Wizard to automatically switch voltages safely, but you do have the option of controlling the mode by adding the Converter Status Remote Pendant # PD92201. I have added links...
view full answer... - How to Test Progressive Dynamics Converter OutputSince you've already checked the input voltage for your Progressive Dynamics converter the last thing for you to do is check the output voltage. If you don't get any output voltage then you'll want to replace the converter. We have a variety of replacement converters to choose from and since your Progressive Dynamics unit lasted 20 years I'd say stick to that brand. The 60A part # PD9160A is your best option which we have confirmed with Progressive Dynamics in the past. But first things...

- Replacement 45 Amp Converter for 1999 Ford Hurricane MotorhomeWe have replacement 45 amp converters like you are looking for with the part # PD4045KA for a panel setup or # PD9145A for just the converter.
view full answer... - RV Converter Replacement for Magnatek Model 7345The Replacement Converter for Parallax/Magnetek or WFCO RV Power Centers - 45 Amp # PD4645V is the direct replacement for your Magnatek 7345 model. If you want to replace the converter and the circuit breaker box then the Progressive Dynamics Mighty Mini AC/DC Panel and Converter Charger - 45 Amp # PD4045KA is also a compatible replacement. The PD9145A you referenced is not a direct replacement option for you.
view full answer... - Recommended Lithium Compatible Replacement For A Magnetek 6345 With A Parallax 7345RU Cross-SectionThe only converter cross-section compatible with a Magnetek 6345 or Parallax 7345RU is the Replacement Converter for Parallax/Magnetek or WFCO RV Power Centers # PD4645V, which unfortunately is not compatible with lithium batteries. You would need to completely replace your power center with one like the Progressive Dynamics Mighty Mini AC/DC Panel and Converter/Smart Charger - 45 Amp # PD4045KA. This 2-in-1 AC/DC distribution panel and converter charger keeps your power systems easily...
