Is there anything I need to know before I change my battery?
From what we have seen here regarding switching back to lead acid on the solar charge controllers is when the solar array loses power, night time with no sunshine, this is when most of the solar controllers revert back to lead acid.

I've come to realize that this must be the case... Although the first day after making the switch the controller flipped back to sealed a few times even though the panels were bringing in power. It now seems to flip when there's no power coming to the charge controller.
Is this a problem? I can't go to my RV everyday when I'm not using it. Should I put the lead acid back in until I replace the controller?

I do not think that leaving the lithium on the charger will hurt it, it will not reach full charge though.
