RV Parts Nation has a large selection and the best prices in the RV Industry for all your RV Converter needs. An electric power source or 12-volt battery system is essential when camping in any modern recreational vehicle. When 120-volt AC power is supplied, the power converter will recharge the battery and then supply 12-volt power. This is needed to power up lights as well as other appliances. The RV manufacturers currently specify the type of electronic rv power converter needed for different brands of RVs. We carry Progressive Dynamics power converters that will be sure to give you all the power you need while camping!
Ever feel like you need a camping adventure in the woods or a drive down the highway is what you need. Great, but is your Recreation Vehicle at its best, ready to take you on that wild adventure? Aside from checking the status of your RVs deep cycle batteries, you need to ensure that your RV is equipped with a reliable RV converter. Okay, but what is an RV converter?
In simple terms, an RV converter is an appliance that is used to turn a 120 Volts Alternate Current to 12 Volts Direct Current electric charges. When you plug an RV converter into an electric power source of 120 Volts AC, the converter changes the 120 Volts AC to 12 Volts DC power. Why is the conversion necessary? In your RV, you may have different electric appliances that draw their power from either 120 Volt AC Amp ratings or 12 Volts DC Amp ratings. If you're drawing your power from a campground or someone else's house, chances are you will be plugged into a 120 Volt AC electric charge. With the converter, you're able to use your television, radio, water pump, fluorescent light or such other appliances that draw from DC electric charge.
The RV converter is not just for changing electric power from one form of charge into another. When you're out there, you don't want your RV deep cycle batteries to die on you. And most certainly, you want to enjoy continuous use of your appliances. Fortunately, the moment you plug your RV converter into a 120 Volt AC power, your RV battery charges automatically. For maximum RV battery charge, however, you need to keep your RV converter plugged into the 120 Volts A/C power source for at least two days.
Whether your RV converter meets your electric power needs or not will depend on its capacity.
