If you don't go with the AGM battery then make sure you get a deep cycle 12-volt battery. Even those drain pretty quick.
AGM is the way to go and cost more but even they drain. (especially when using A/C.)

Here is a link to the page describing the Lithium Switch.

There is a logo on the outside panel that identifies if the unit has the Lithium Switch. If you have the logo, you have the switch.

I have a close up photo of my sticker on my phone and I don’t see that sticker. My rigs in storage, even though I haven’t noticed that sticker on mine, I’m going to check, thanks. I’m guessing since I have a 2019 it was not available yet, but you never know!

Read through the discussion thus far - and don’t seem to find an answer to the question yet. I,too, am interested in these particular batteries and am interested to know if anyone has experience with them. Don’t want to go lithium, yet, as short trips mostly with hookups (few years from retirement). Don’t want to change converter and deal with the alternator issues charging lithium. So - does anyone have experience with the battery in question?

No pink sticker on mine unless I’m missing something!?

Here is my plan to replace house Lead acid with 2-6V AGM’s
Or something with the same foot print. It’s the only battery that can fit in my step well where my battery is stored. No need to modify anything other than a few cables. Again, there are plenty of AGM options but my issue is the size.
