2016 Northpoint 377 RLBH Charge Controller

I'm looking at a battery upgrade and considering AGMs. I was told by someone who seems incredibly knowledgeable on batteries that I need to make sure my charge controller is able to handle AGMs, as apparently they charge a bit differently than flooded. All I can find in the documentation for my rig is that I have "Charge Wizard" charge controller - I'm not sure where it is, what model, or what I need to look at and/or set it to (if that's possible) to migrate to AGMs.

Anyone with my unit and/or a Northpoint of the same year have any knowledge on this? Where to look for it, exact model of charge controller...?

TIA

You’re good...I had AGM’s on my ‘16 NP and called the company about switching to lithium and they said I would be good to go to make the switch. I posted the info in the 377 mods thread (at least I think that’s where I put it).

Good to hear, thank you.
Do you have any clue the exact model and/or where it's located?

The model # was posted on the front of the unit on mine. Just open the front cover & it should be right there on the front.

Sorry for reviving an old thread - I was wondering the same thing and started searching...

^There's a Lead Acid / Lithium switch that should be used when changing between battery types, built right into the controller.
