converter box delete

I only will use shore power. I dont use anything that is 12v. Is there a easy way to delete the converter box or does it tie into 110?i dont care about resale as i probably will never sale it

  • Put lights on plugs leds,ac is a window unit, fridge will be replaced with a residential unit. Not sure on the model i know its a coachman.my batteries are unhooked. I dont use it switching everything to 110 .when finished i will live in it
  • Once you flip the breaker also disconnect your battery. Then check to make sure all you appliances work. You might be surprised to find out how many items that can run off of 110 actually use the 12 volt side to power the control boards.
  • Keep watch on your batteries. You might find that they're not recharging.

    Any specific reason you're not wanting a (presumably) converter/charger in your camper?
  • What is the model number of the breaker box or load center?
    Is this a park model? 50 amp service? Have you removed the 12v battery?

    Sometimes the 12v converter shares a breaker so you may need to clip the wire and cap with a wire nut. Or some converters are plugged into an outlet where you can just unplug it.

    Really need to know what you have.
  • OK so you don't use your fridge, your lights, your furnace, your air conditioner, or your water pump then?
  • Ok,iwasnt 100 % if it only put out 12v or if the 110 did too. But if thats the case ill just flip the breaker like you recommended
