Hi there, I'm Michael with each trailer.com. Today, we're going to take a quick look at this power dynamics, 90 amp RV power control center. This is a two in one unit that's going to combine the AC and DC distribution panels with a multifunction converter charger. Uh, this is going to not only allow you to power the AC and DC applications in your RV, it's also going to allow you to charge your RV's 12 volt battery systems. So, this is a hard-wired installation uh, but it is going to be very convenient to have all these uh, systems in one place. That's going to save space and it's also going to be much easier for you to just install the one component, uh, rather than multiple.

So our power distribution panel is going to provide 90 amps of power to our AC and DC applications in our RV. We've got our AC section here that's going to include 12 branch circuits rated for 240 volts at 50 amps. It's also going to have the DC side here that has 18 branch fuse holders capable of using four 30 amp and 1420 amp fuses. Uh, these are very easy to get installed, uh, move the cover here, you can get a better view of that. So you can see, we do have these uh, lever lock connectors that are very easy to just pop open get our wire they're installed and then snap shut.

So very easy to get wired up. Uh, these are going to require your AC breakers and DC fuses, those are sold separately, so you will have to uh, get those to finish your installation here. And then this is also going to have that charge controller converter charger. Uh, that's going to use your shore power to quickly charge your RV's battery systems. Uh, this will provide power for your lithium ion batteries or your uh, flooded lead acid AGM or gel batteries.

Uh, you can see right above our little blue button there we've got a tiny little switch, and right next to that, you see that L I or L A so that's where we're going to control whether this is on lithium, which is the LI or the lead acid which is the LA that lead acid setting will work uh, for your lead acid AGM or gel batteries. Uh, the reason they have that switch there is because your lithium batteries do require a little bit higher uh, voltage. Uh, so if you have it on that setting and it's going to provide that high voltage output to provide that full quick charge for your lithium batteries if you have it on the led acid setting it's going to uh, start up the charge widget, wizard feature that monitors your lead acid batteries and automatically charges them uh, when they're needed, kind of has a multi-stage charging setup so that if the batteries are really empty, it'll charge it faster. And just kind of top it off if they're uh, just needed a little bit. So having that multi-stage functionality is going to help extend your batteries life and make sure that they are charging the way they need to.

So it's really nice to have that option there. So if you currently have led acid, but you're thinking maybe in the future, you'll switch to lithium. You can easily just use the one unit switch back and forth as needed. This does have a lot of built-in safety features to protect your RV's electrical system from over voltage, under voltage, over current, and a reverse polarity. And this is constructed of a heat resistant uh, polymer construction. And it's also got a built-in uh, two built in proportional speed cooling fans. So, depending on how hot the unit is getting, those will pick up speed to remove excess heat from the unit. So everything is staying in appropriate uh, temperature ranges. As far as our dimensions go, uh, this isn't going to take up a whole lot of space for you, and it's going to be pretty simple to uh, get installed and connected. Do want to give you a few measurements here. So you can see, for our width we're looking at, just shy of 12 inches Our heights, right just a little bit over 14 inches, and then our depth, right about eight inches in total. we'll call it eight and a half total. This does meet the uh, UL standards. It is UL listed. Uh, so you can meet, you can trust that it's going to meet those quality standards uh, for safety and that sort of thing. Uh, it is made here in the USA, so you can trust it's made to the high quality standards that we've come to know and trust for products that are made here in the US. They do include a couple of wires for you to get your batteries connected to the unit. Again, you have those easy, uh, quick clips there to uh,
