North Point converter location

[AV8R]

I searched "Location of Converter" and learned some are built into the circuit breaker/fuse assembly. I have a 2019 North Point 387RDFS. Would anyone know if my converter is built into the circuit breaker/fuse assembly? If it is a separate piece of equipment, does anyone know its location. I'm not seeing it behind the front basement wall. Previous unit was a 2011 Keystone Alpine, which had a separate converter unit.

Go to your fuse breaker panel On the back of the plastic door is there a label
If it is a progressive industries the label will have the model number.
Progressive units the converter and fuse breaker are all one assembly.
Our 2017 Eagle has a 4560xxxx series

Yes,, its built into the main breaker panel. Four corner screws and the whole assembly will slide out. our converter is to the right of the circuit breakers. Once you slide the assembly out, the converter can be easily removed/replaced. A couple of electrical jumpers and two screws and the converter is removed. I replaced mine with a Lipo Charger/Converter in a mater of 20 mins.

The only label on my circuit breaker panel is attached. Nothing mentions Progressive Industries, but when I Google the numbers, it does take me to Progressive converters. PD4590K18NS2B.

kirkelli, would you have a link for the replaceable converter part?

Now another question: This unit appears to have a lead-acid battery / lithium switch.

If I change to lithium batteries, assuming that this converter is compatible, do I need to do anything to my inverter, or put in a new inverter?

I'm currently running six, 6v Deep Cycle Interstate batteries. They are wired in pairs of two in series. Then the three pairs of two are all wired together in parallel. I'm wondering if that configuration is putting too much strain on my converter.

I also have a smart battery charger that I run once a week or so to keep the batteries topped off. Water is maintained monthly. Battery charger is a CTEK (56-674) Multi US 25000 8-step, Fully Automatic 12 Volt 25 Amp Battery Charger.

my Lithium board is for the 4100 sieries, purchased here:https://battlebornbatteries.com/prod...-power-center/ Looks like price went up, i paid 164.

this is the progressive dynamics site you would study as there are different options for lithium upgrade. Also, from years 2019 up, the converters come Lithium ready, you just have to switch the option on.. Looks like you have the 4500 sieries,,, study that line and see what your options are.

I'm surprised it didn't jump off and slap me in the face. Thank you!
