X213 converter output

Anybody know how many amps the converter in a 2012 X213 can put out to charge the batteries?

It probably only has a 35AMP Converter/charger in it. If you are wanting to install two 12VDC batteries then you probably should replace the 35AMP model to a 45AMP model. Battery charging science says you need around 20AMPS per battery available if you want the two 12VDC batteries to get re-charged in a quick three hours time using smart mode charging technology.

To be absolute sure you need to find the model number on the on-board CONVERTER/CHARGER unit.

Finally crawled in there and took a look, and it has a 45amp model. So all good for the 2 new 6volt batteries I installed.
