Magnetek series 7300, Model 7345 Converter
Hello all, I have a 1998 Lance Legend 500 truck camper that uses the above converter. I’ve been having battery issues lately, and after removing the 12V house battery I found it is sitting at 6.5...

When it has 120v input, the 7345 should have 13.8v across its blue and white DC output wires. The fuse panel has lugs for those and also for the battery wires.
First confirm you are getting 13.8 from the converter (OP seems like it is, but not clear) If not getting that on the battery lugs of the fuse panel, there is a problem with the wires at the fuse panel--perhaps a set-screw is loose and a wire fell out ( lugs are also on the back of the panel so you can't see there unless you unscrew it (two screws)
Not clear what is going on with the voltage from the truck. It should be whatever the engine battery is at.
AGMs do not need a "smart converter", but they do need 14.4v which the 7300 can't do, being single stage 13.8v.
