New converter charger options?
We have WF-8955an converter charger in our new to us TT. What is a good replacement for it that includes 3-stage charging and "regulated" 12v output to lights- to protect 12v LEDs and such when the ba...

Hmm, at 25' I think I'd go with a deck mount charger, even if you put in 14.8V and used massive 1AWG cable you'd still only be putting 14.3V into the battery which is barely enough to really charge it at a decent pace. That's the one drawback of low voltage DC, distance kills your efficiency.
Deck mounted...as in MOVE the charger/converter, or use a separate one?
Doesn't the charger also supply 12V to the coach?
So I'd have potential voltage loss going back to the circuit panel, but likely never use the number of amps the battery charging would, right?
I'd use a separate one and disable (disconnect) the one in your converter, and yes the idea is that you'd never be drawing anywhere near 80A from your 12V outlets so the voltage drop is less of an issue.
