Is there a lithium drop in replacement?

If I wanted to replace my house battery with a lifepo is it possible? Everything else is stock. What size battery is it currently?

In a word, no... More correctly, not in an ideal fashion.

The charging profile of our smart alternators will not appropriately or fully charge a LiFePO4 battery (or truly, anything that doesn't fit the pre-programmed charging profile of an EFB). So you'll need to introduce a DC-DC charger.

On the plus side, if you have the OEM dual battery set up there is an option that is very straight forward. Grab the RedArc 150Ah LiFePO4 battery and RedArc BCDC Alpha 50 DC-DC charger and then grab the @GPFACTOR mounts for both the battery and charger. I recently helped @TWExplor install this setup (granted, I made a DC-DC charger bracket for him because GP Factor didn't have one at the time). We were able to reuse the OEM house battery positive and negative cables, and utilized the OEM 5 outlet bus bar to be power distribution for the aux battery. Grabbing power to the DC-DC charger from the main battery was easily done by replacing the ZCASE fuse that normally lead to the SmartPass with an appropriately sized one and making a new power wire.
