Not sure but you may need a different charger for the Lithium batteries. Most WFCO chargers aren't good for Lithium batts.

Our trailer has a similar TV cabinet as yours with the power panel installed at the bottom and I had the same thought as you. So yesterday, I removed the power panel and there is plenty of room on the floor the cabinet to mount a string of lithium batteries. Now I'm trying to figure out a way to make an access panel so I can get at the cells without it looking like a botch job. Our trailer cabinetry is greyish brown color that is hard to recreate. Any thoughts?
You are correct the charger in our power panel (WF-8955PEC) that is in our trailer now doesn't put out a high enough voltage for Lithium. WFCO makes a replacement lithium charger unit (WF-8950L2-MBA) that will fit inside the bottom of our existing power panel.Last edited by BeerBrewer; 04-12-2021 at 07:37 AM.

I got the drop-in lithium-compatible charger (PD4566LIV) and it works great. I installed my battery (home build pack) through the power panel hole, along with the wiring and busses needed. It wasn't worth the frustration, I felt like I was trying to build a ship in a bottle at some points. If I did it again I'd pry the front off the whole cabinet and find a way of making the whole front removable. Maybe build an inner frame to screw the panel to with new edge molding?
