This RV power control center combines an AC/DC panel with a smart converter charger. Creating easy access to your electrical connections, this all-in-one breaker box distributes AC and DC loads to your RV and charges your batteries while connected to shore power. It's compatible with lithium and lead acid batteries.
The panel supplies AC and DC distribution to your RV's electrical system. The AC section includes space for up to 3 breakers rated for 120V at 30 amps. This lets you have up to 6 branch circuits when you use tandem breakers. The DC section has 12 branch fuse holders capable of using (2) 30 amp and (10) 20 amp fuses. However, you will need to purchase AC breakers and DC fuses separately to complete the installation.
Once all of your connections are made, the breakers and fuses are easily accessible by opening the door on the front of the box. The door also includes a blank label to list all of the connections.
The integrated converter charger changes AC shore power into DC power to charge your battery bank. It includes an output mode switch that lets you choose either lithium or lead acid batteries. No matter what type of battery is installed in your RV, you'll always have the most efficient charging profile. If your RV already has a stock converter charger, it will need to be removed to ensure this unit operates properly.
In lithium mode, the unit uses a higher output voltage, which provides a fast, complete charge. It also extends battery life since it utilizes the appropriate charging profile. Additionally, this mode is compatible with your battery's internal Battery Management System (BMS), which helps manage the charge cycle by monitoring the battery state and balancing cell voltage.
In lead acid mode, the Charge Wizard automatically switches voltages while your lead acid battery bank charges. This accelerates the charge but also helps extend battery life by adjusting the voltage during the different modes. This function is compatible with flooded lead acid, AGM, and gel batteries.
Charging Modes
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. The built-in cooling fan also removes excess heat from the unit. The fan speed is proportional to the internal temperature of the converter, so when the power demand is low, the fan will operate quietly.

Perfect replacement for Original equipm ent
I am very happy with the progressive dynamics RV converter. It was not hard to install because I was taking out an existing unit that was the same except it would not charge lithium batteries. I have not received my lithium batteries yet, but I'm hopeful it charges them. Well, I have no reason to think it won't. This unit is charging better than the one I took out..
It can go from lead acid AGM to lithium in a flick of a switch !
It is intillegent can can float and trickle , no more FULL on like the OEM.
So far so good!
Quality is excellent but I ended up returning this and went with a separate PD5500 series panel and a Progressive Dynamics 60 watt converter. I did this because the PD5500 has two A/C bus bars that allow me to separate breakers that I only want powered by shore power from those I want powered on both shore and inverter power. The inverter has a built in transfer switch but installing it on a shared bus creates an unwanted loop.
Replaced my RV's existing unit with this one. The documentation provided was well written which made the install go smoothly. The unit is compact taking up much less space then the old one and I especially like that the access door opens to the side instead of swinging down like the old unit.
None of my technical questions were answered so if I attempted a replacement it would have been bad I'm keeping it cuz my problem was the source power plug not hooked up right now power is restored and the original is working ok
Dynamics RV converter is better quality than original equipment
Feels durable and was pretty easy to in stall
Works well and easy installation. I got it after I went with the lithium batteries so it will charge them properly.
Only con is that it doesn’t have LED lights beside each fuse like my old one did. So easy to see if you have a blown fuse with the lights.
Installed easily and works well with the new lithium battery

I’m amazed at how little water is lost in the two 6 volt batteries now. Voltage remains steady ar around 13.5 volts. Very happy with this converter charger!
This unit was purchased for a 2008 Air Stream replacement the new unit works great We had to modify the wall bit where the existing unit was installed with some trim boards but not really a big deal for installing
This Air stream that it was purchased for is a full time live in that travels the country And the new unit has worked flawlessly since installing for about a year now
We purchased this a yr ago because our other one was literally burning up.
We ordered it on Sunday and received it Monday. I guess etrailer ships from close by? Glad I didn't pay for overnight shipping.
I had a friend install it because he does that kind of stuff for a living and volunteered. I could've done it myself the instructions were clear and easy to understand it took less than an hr to do.
The price was reasonable compared to what it would've cost at repair shop not to mention the time.
It's still working great and not smoking or tripping fuses.
This power center was easy to install and seems to be working well. However, the wiring diagram on the back of it is small and difficult to read. Maybe I am missing it, but there does not seem to be a buss to connect negative 12v wires to. I think I will have to purchase one separately and install it behind the cabinet the power center is attached to.

Thank you for your review. I have some installation instructions that should help you. Please note that troubleshooting this electrical unit should be done by a professional. https:www.progressivedyn.comwp-contentuploads201705PD4045-TROUBLESHOOTING.pdf https:www.progressivedyn.comwp-contentuploadsSupportmanuals110145-English.pdf

The power center is working well now after a year. I did end up purchasing a separate negative 12v grounding buss, which is also working well.
Always satisfied with E Trailer. Item arrived quickly, I was kept updated on status and item is as described. Thanks for the great service
Customer service was very helpful and the part was received within two days.
Very fast shipping and arrived in perfect condition. Exact item I needed.
Fixed a problem that put us back on the road. Complicated install. I’m glad we called a pro.
It works as it should
Used for a conversion of an ambulance to a motorhome about a year ago. Works as expected. Simple install. Seems like a quality unit (not flimsy, etc).
Victron battery monitor shows this thing charging my LiFePO4 battery at close to 60amps so I would say it works as advertised also.
Fan is noticeable but not annoying. It is rare that it even kicks on except for when we are charging our large house battery after it has been run down a bit.
Easy installation and works great with lithium batteries.
Replaced the same item in my horse trai ler.
give 5 stars for very fast delivery service ONLY! Maybe somebody can help to explain if the original fried one (see pictures) was not a fire hazard who could kill us considering was installed right under the bed. Were these "intelligent" convertors not provided with a killer switch or safety device to avoid a fire ?
I bought this per recommendation from E-Trailer for a replacement in my 33FT Jayco TT. It took some research for the install but it wasn’t that difficult. Progressive Dynamics has a great team and helped me with questions I had.
I switched to the 60 amp PD4000 from the WFCO non lithium version because I got a 230 amp hour lithium. The 60 amp version will charge the battery faster. We can in NP’s a lot and. Can only run our generator 2 hours at a time. The install went pretty easy. You just have to take your time. It is gut about a direct switch over. Everything seems to be working great.

We recently did a six week trip to national parks out west and the PD4000 worked perfectly. I am very happy with it.
