In simple terms, a power converter changes AC power to direct current (DC). We’ve recommended our top picks of RV power converters and included an installation guide at the end of the post too. This post will help you understand the basics of converters and battery chargers to decide what size you need and the key features to look out for when buying. You can spend time on a campground with a hookup facility or top up the batteries from home.Īn RV power converter is an essential electrical component in the hook up installation to recharge batteries. The ability to recharge the battery bank from a mains supply or electrical hookup (EHU) is a perfect fallback position. Watching the battery levels fall on the RV battery monitor as the clouds stubbornly refuse to lift indicates time to be more mindful about your electrical use.Ĭharging the batteries as you drive can give a boost, but running the engine long enough to get a decent charge is not always practical.

If you’re planning to live in a van full time or even for a few weeks at a time, you’ve probably already got your solar setup worked out to keep the battery bank charged.īut what about when the weather is against you for days on end? This guide will help you find the best RV converter charger for your rig. Note that the DC power for the Isolated Circuits is always coming directly from the battery or the charging circuit when 120 VAC power is applied to the RV (green arrows).An RV converter charger keeps batteries charged from a shore power hookup, helping maintain them in tip-top condition, ready for your next boondocking trip. This action also disconnects the RV battery from the branch circuits and places it on charge (blue arrows). Now the converter feeds DC Power to the branch circuits (red arrows). This DC power is also fed to the Relay Coil, which in turn pulls down the center arm of the Relay so that it makes contact with the lower N.O. It is then fed through the Diode Rectifiers, which convert this AC Voltage to 13.8 VDC. The Transformer reduces the 120 VAC down to 13.8 VAC (Alternating Current).

The Isolated Circuits for the Radio, TV or Stereo are connected directly to the battery positive terminal. See figure 2 below for operation when AC power is applied. The RV battery is supplying 12-volt power (Red Arrows ) to the RV branch circuits through the N.C. This resistor limits the amount of charging current that can be delivered to the battery. It is turned ON when the battery needs charging current and is turned OFF, when the circuit board senses the battery is charged.

This is basically an electronic switch that is controlled by the circuit board.

Very Slow Flashing Light: When the light blinks approximately every 5-10 seconds, the battery is fully charged.

Rapidly Flashing Light: The battery is approximately 90% charged.

Light "ON" all of the time: The battery is being charged.

The charger board is equipped with an LED (Light Emitting Diode) that indicates the charging status as follows. Senses the battery voltage and then provides a signal to the SCR (Silicon Controlled Rectifier) to turn it ON, which in turn supplies charging current to the RV Battery.

Reduces the 120 VAC from the Shore Power or Generator down to approximately 13.8 Volts AC (Alternating Current) at its secondary output.Ĭonverts the 13.8 Volts AC from the Transformer secondary output to approximately 13.8 Volts DC (Direct Current).Īutomatically disconnects the RV Battery from the 12-volt RV circuits and then connects the 13.8-volt power to the RV 12-volt circuits when Shore Power is connected to the RV.
