Currently have one deep cycle marine battery, but thinking of swapping out for an AGM 100 amp hr RV battery. Do I need to also switch out the stock charger/converter for a 3 stage? Can't find anything detailing what type of converter came with the unit?
You have a WFCO8955 converter which unfortunately won't ever reach it's advertised 14.4 volt bulk charge rate, with the most it being able to do being ~ 13.7 volts. I simply turned mine off and instead used a stand alone CTEK charger that can do a proper 14.4 volt bulk charge. When I replaced my aging G27 flooded battery earlier this year I mounted a G31 DEKA AGM in the front pass through storage compartment, partly to place it out of sight, out of mind, partly because as an AGM it needs no maintenance, and partly because that reduced the cable run from the battery to the inverter input from 6' to ~ 18". Pics are in my gallery.
