Will WF-9855 Converter Charge Lithium Battery

Updated 07/16/2021 | Published 07/15/2021

Question:

If I were to simply swap my single lead acid battery in my fifth wheel with this lithium battery no solar would I likely need to make any other modifications for it to operate and charge correctly? My current converter is a WF-9855. Thanks,

In regards to upgrading from lead acid to lithium batteries on a trailer like the Go Power Lithium RV Battery part # 34282740, you usually need to swap out the charge converter assuming the model you have not is not rated for lithium batteries. The Progressive Dynamics Inteli-Power RV Converter and Battery Charger part # PD9160ALV will replace a WF-9855 and is lithium compatible.
