I have a 2017 lance 1475 camper. Im looking to switch my deep cycle battery to a lithium. Do you know if thats possible without having any issues?

The only potential issue I can see happening is if the converter in your 2017 Lance 1475 camper isn't rated for lithium batteries. If that's the case then we have the Progressive Dynamics Replacement Section for AC/DC Power Distribution Panel # PD4645V rated for 45 Amps (which should be what yours is rated for), but you'll need to install a jumper, which you can get at a computer store, in the LI position (see attached).

This solution works if you have one of the following power centers:

- Parallax/Magnetek model 6345, WFCO model 8945, and Parallax models 7345 and 8345

If you don't have one of these and your converter isn't rated for Lithium then I recommend upgrading your power center to the Progressive Dynamics 4000 Series # PD4045KA.
