Which RV power converter do I need?

Choosing the correct size converter for your RV requires knowledge of how you use your RV’s electrical system. Generally larger RV’s need larger converters because they will have higher DC loads with more lights and appliances. While looking at all of the electronics, note each device’s amperage rating.

Will an RV converter work without a battery?

If you are already connected to shore power source, you do not need a battery, as long as the converter is working properly. When you are connected to shore power, this power will go into your RV’s converter, which transforms the 120-volt AC power into the 12-volt DC power.
