Winnebego Era 170A – Mercedes Van
These RV’s have 2 lead acid batteries mounted one each side on the underside at the rear. We modified the factory battery trays and fitted 4 x 100Ah Battle Born heated lithium batteries for a substantial battery capacity upgrade. A VE MultiPlus II 3000 inverter charger was installed so that the whole RV can be powered via the batteries. A soft starter was fitted to the A/C and a single 100W solar panel was added to the already fully loaded roof. The solar charger was upgraded to a VE SmartSolar 100/50 charger. The alternator charge system was updated so that it was suitable for lithium batteries with an Orion-Tr 30A DC-DC charger and a smaller Orion-Tr 18A DC-DC to charge the chassis battery. The system was completed with a GX Touch screen and Cerbo GX.
