Just kinda shocks me that it would say right on there "unsuitable for charging" wouldn't that be one of its two main functions?

The old converters were nothing more than a 120 VAC to 12 VAC transformer, and the diodes necessary to turn the AC into DC, with lots of ripple. This setup would kill a battery eventually. It would continue to charge till the battery was boiled dry.

They were meant as just a cheep way of lighting your 12VDC lights when you have a power plug available. Works on a vent fan as well.

In earlier trailers you had to either depend on a charging line from the TV or install a small charger to keep the on board battery charged.
