Replacement Converter for WFCO WF-8955PEC for Lithium Batteries  

Question:

I have a WFCO WF-8955PEC converter in my RV. I am switching to lithium batteries and need to change the converter. Will this fit into the same physical space as the WFCO main board assembly i.e. be a -in converter replacement? I was hoping it would fit into the WFCO chassisinch so I would only have to swap the converter and keep the AC breakers and DC fuse board.

To convert the WFCO WF-8955PEC to be lithium compatible you'd need the part # PD4655V and you'd be set. This fits in the panel without any modifications.

Is this an entirely different fuse panel and converter replacement? I have the same unit (8955PEC) in my toy hauler and would like to eventually upgrade to lithium, was hoping not to replace everything, just upgrade the wfco box, thanks in advance for any info you can provide

@Tim Its the lower section that basically replaces everything needed to allow it to charge lithium batteries.

I'm with Tim on this one. The pictures for the Item # PD4655V include what appears to be a circuit board/fuse panel as well for all fuses and electrical connections that come as part of the package. Does that circuit board need to be replaced along with the converter box, or is it sufficient to replace just the lower slide-in box? You mentioned to @Tim that the lower section replaces what is needed, but I want to be 100% sure that the circuit/board/fuse panel that I have with my WF-8955PEC can remain intact. Thanks!

@Greg It is just the lower section that the # PD4655V replaces on your converter. The rest of your panel stays intact.

@JamesonC Is there a 30 amp version or does this replace 30 and 50 amp setups?
