Just bought a 2007 Starcraft Pine Mountain popup Truck Camper

I Just bought a 2007 Starcraft Pine Mountain popup Truck Camper to put on my 2018 Ford f150 4x4. I plan to add 200 watts of solar and a 100 amp hour Lifepo4 battery. The battery that came with the camper is shot and so is the converter. I am looking for a converter to replace the Elixir ELX-25 which is shot. I need a converter that will also fully charge a lifepo4 100 amp hour battery. Any suggestions.

Nice clean camper!!! Looks like a lot of future fun!

As said, yard out the old converter or just disconnect the old and wire up a new in place if it’s part of the power center and that is all working and in good order. 
Not a huge undertaking save for maybe spatial challenges as whatever you replace will basically wire up the same. As long as you have decent concept  knowledge and a bit of experience imo.

so the Elixir elx-25 is a oddball power center and there is not a direct replacment for it as well it is no longer made.

the most comon repair was to change the whole power center out for a Progresive dynamice 4100 series power center.  the 4100 series is discontinued but there are still some around, just make sure if you go that way you get one with the Li switch.  the other option is the PD 4000 series which I put into my camper. https://www.progressivedyn.com/pd4000-series/  this would require enlarging your openiong a tiny bit in each direction though, a 4100 series I beleive is close enough to not have to do any mods, but I am not absolutly positive on that.  

now if it is only the converter of the power center that is shot you may be able to wire in a stand alone converter, and if you go that way I would recomend a PD9300 series https://www.progressivedyn.com/pd9300/
