Upgrading Battery

[Gopher]

Have a 2021 Vacationer 35K, considering upgrading the battery. Current 12v setup is 4 x 6v 225ah FLA in Series and Parallel. 1 270ah Li battery is what I’m thinking.

Any suggestions?

Does the converter / charger in your RV have a battery recharge setting for a lithium battery? This matters to prevent inadvertently over charging or under charging the lithium battery - either will cause damage to the life of the battery.

Thanks and good point! Yes I did check the inverter and the charger and good to go. Charger has a Li setting.

More concerning though is the rats nest of heavy gauge wire. Series and Parallel is crazy. Wonder where I could find a diagram for the battery bank?

No need to change your wiring here unless there is something changing on the consumption side in your RV.

Go to the manufacturers web site and download the owners manual for documentation.
