2019 Roo 23IKSS Charger Converter Model #?

My local dealer has yet to receive any 2019 23IKSS TTs. I was wondering if a 2019 23IKSS owner might be able to tell me what WFCO charger converter model number was installed in their unit. I'd like to make sure that the charging side of the WFCO is at least a 3-stage unit. I have heard that some earlier ones were not or functioned poorly.

TIA,

Theo

Your newer WFCO should be fine. The one in our 2007 Roo was still working great after 10 years of usage, when we sold it.
As far as I know, all WFCO converters since at least 2007, are 3 stage.

This is the WFCO at the plant about to go into my G19FD Geo Pro. Built, just waiting on delivery now, a few more weeks! It has a 3 stage charger.

Thanks for the responses bikendan and NJKris!

My first mod will be to install a Victron battery monitor to get a better idea of what's going on with battery use and charging. Then, I'll probably make the change to 2 6-volt GC2s. Lastly, perhaps a combo converter/4-stage charger/inverter.

Of course, this all depends on the proper lottery payout!

The WFCO converter in my 2006 Roo (June 2005 production) is 3 stage. Don't recall the amperage but it handles my pair of high amp hour 6v batteries easily.
