Not 100% sure. Whatever came with the RV (which itself initially only came with a single 12V deep-cycle lead-acid battery). Like I mentioned, I converted the single 12V lead-acid, to 4, 6V lead-acid in series/parallel. Just looked at an old pic from the RV, it looks like a WFCO-9855 "Power Converter". Interestingly, the blurb on their pages says:
Many people don’t know that the original colloidal battery is also a kind of lead-acid battery. The colloidal battery is an improvement of the ordinary lead-acid battery with liquid electrolyte. It replaces the sulfuric acid electrolyte with the colloidal electrolyte.
The colloidal battery is an improvement of the ordinary lead-acid battery with liquid electrolyte. It replaces the sulfuric acid electrolyte with the colloidal electrolyte. Compared with ordinary batteries, the power storage capacity, discharge performance and service life are improved.
The colloidal lead-acid battery used in electric bicycle is filled between positive and negative plates of the battery by silica gel and sulfuric acid solution through vacuum perfusion in the AGM partition.
The charging process depends on the application and must be carried out in accordance with the recommendations of the battery-manufacturer. The recommended operation temperature range for lead acid batteries is 10°C to 30°C (best: nominal temperature ± 5K). Higher temperatures will seriously reduce service life.
Abstract: Recommended design practices and procedures for storage, location, mounting, ventilation, instrumentation, preassembly, assembly, and charging of vented lead-acid batteries are provided. Required safety practices are also included. These recommended practices are applicable to all stationary applications.
Batteries shall be installed in clean, dry locations. Batteries must be secured against dropping items and dirt. The course width between battery rows is equal to 1.5 times the cell depth (replacement) but minimum 600 mm (acc. to EN 50 272-2). The recommended minimum distance between cells or blocs (of VRLA type) is 10 mm.

The difference from conventional lead-acid batteries is not only that the electro-hydraulic is changed to a gelatinous state. For example, non-solid hydrocolloids belong to colloidal batteries from the perspective of electrochemical classification structure and characteristics. Another example is the attachment of polymer materials in the grid ...
The two "driver" batteries are energy storage batteries, solar lead acid batteries and colloidal batteries, which use the principle of cathode absorption to seal the battery. When the battery is being charged, oxygen is evolved in the positive electrode and hydrogen is evolved in the negative electrode. The positive oxygen evolution begins when the positive charge …
Scope: This recommended practice provides recommended design practices and procedures for storage, location, mounting, ventilation, instrumentation, preassembly, assembly, and charging of vented lead-acid batteries. Required safety practices are also included.
Levasil ® colloidal silica is an extremely cost-efficient and easy-to-use option for gelling sulfuric acid to obtain a solid electrolyte (gel cell) in valve-regulated, lead-acid (VRLA) batteries and for reducing the acid stratification in absorbed glass …
A GEL battery is a lead-acid electric storage device that has the electrolyte (acid) immobilized by adding a silica additive that converts the electrolyte into a GEL-like material or consistency. A GEL battery: Is a mature technology that has been in use since the early 1950s. Uses various grid thicknesses relative to application and cost requirements. Uses various Positive and Negative …
Colloidal lead-acid battery is an improvement of common lead-acid battery with liquid electrolyte. It uses colloidal electrolyte to replace sulphuric acid electrolyte, which is better than ordinary battery in safety, charge storage, discharge performance and service life.

The invention discloses a method for injecting colloid electrolyte into a lead-acid battery, comprising the following steps of: adding sulphuric acid solution into a dry battery, adding...
The batteries have to be put upside down and free volume has to remain in order to mix the colloidal solution with the sulphuric acid and have a homogeneous gel. The advantage of this method is that it does not need any plates drying and washing of the plates, nor a second charging step.
Battery System Installation Considerations: No fire, flame or heat supply should be near the battery; Avoid installation near heat supply or in direct sunlight; Avoid operating in …
The colloidal battery belongs to a lead-acid battery, but it improves the performance of the old lead-acid battery to a large extent. It replaces the sulfuric acid electrolyte with a colloidal electrolyte. In this way, the colloidal battery obtains more power storage and a longer service life. It has better discharge performance and is safer. There is no free liquid …
