Replacing A Newmark 100VAC 12VDC 40 AMP Converter In A 90s JDM Camper
Question:
I have a 90s JDM camper van with Japanese electrical set up. My Newmark power converter is 100VAC to 12VDC 40A. Can I still plug in 110VAC, or will it burn it out? Should I upgrade the converter? If so what would be a good or better equivalent? I will be adding Li batt and possibly solar to this moon RV. Thank you

Hello LT, thanks for reaching out. I cannot recommend hooking your converter up to 110 power since this is not what it is made for. Your best bet will be to replace the converter with something designed for 110v. Also if you plan to change to lithium batteries it will need to be replaced anyways. For a replacement I recommend the Progressive Dynamics 9300 Series RV Converter Charger # PD69RR which is lithium compatible.
