If you want to stay with WFCO (because it fits into your power center) take a look at the 8950-L2-MBA. It is a direct replacement, and it is lithium only. I have had one for two years now, and works fine. The only annoyance is that it will only bulk charge for a maximum of 4 hours at a time before switching to absorption mode. I have to cycle the input power to initiate another bulk charge cycle. Other than that I am happy with it.

Powermax also make a converter that has a switch - an actual physical switch - to go from Lead acid, LiFePo4 or to Fixed Voltage it's PowerMax PM3-55LKL 12 Volt, 55 Amp Lithium Plus Converter/Charger. I just put this in a couple of weeks ago. Working just fine. I check it every couple of days. I think they only make the LKL series in 55, 100 and 120 amps. It's also almost $100.00 less that a PD or WFCO.

UPDATE
After reading many posts around the web, and watching the NRVTA post on You Tube, I reached out to WFCO an received a response.
They are asking me to take a couple of measurements at the converter and at the battery under load. They also asked the length of the cables running to the battery from the converter.
They also asked about the gauge of the wiring as well. Not really sure how to check that so if any of you know how to tell what gauge a wire is please let me know.
These all seemed like reasonable questions so I will do my best to answer them. Apparently there is a 'firmware' update available and maybe this will remedy my issue. I was happy to hear from them and hopefully we can fix this issue. I'll report back.2020 Reflection 29RS 5th Wheel

The wire gage should be printed on it. 6 AWG or 8 AWG

***UPDATE TWO***
After a few conversations, my unit will be going in for a firmware update. The folks there were very nice and helpful. Hopefully this will resolve my issues. It's about a 3 week turn around so no trips until it's complete.
I'll report back when I have the unit reinstalled.2020 Reflection 29RS 5th Wheel

I have to send it to the warranty center for the firmware update. We're out on the road now soon as we get back we'll be sending it in.
I will follow to let you all know the outcome.2020 Reflection 29RS 5th Wheel
