What is the charge amount of the Charge Wizard Converter Operation

[Boudreaux]

Reaching out to those with the knowledge.

I have a '16 Jayco Greyhawk 29MV.

I'm wondering if anyone out there knows what the charge current amount from the Charge Wizard Converter is in my coach....?? The manual is very vague.

I'm researching Lithium batteries, The Greenlife 100AH battery requires a 60A charge current.

Can our Charge Wizard Converter in the Greyhawk 29MV supply the needed charge power (current) to keep up such a battery...???

The paperwork i got with my 2016 29MV lists the converter at 60 amps.

Don't think it's designed for lithium they make a special charger for those.

Lithium batteries require a balance charger. Connecting them to your current system will likely result in a fire and catastrophic damage to your coach.
Another consideration would be that your coach won't have a way to shut the cells down, should they drop below their minimum safe voltage.
Highly recommend sticking to AGM or Lead Acid deep cycle batteries.

Thought I would share this. A friend of mine used a NiCad charging program accidentally to charge a LiPo battery. Luckily, he was able to get the whole mess outside before he lost his entire building.

^^^ Yep ^^^, for several years, I was into R/C car racing. I have seen more than one R/C car melt down due to Lithium battery issues along with the occasional fire caused by improper use of a Lithium charger.

Lithium batteries are excellent batteries when cared for properly.
