Here's an even more important reason to have a DC to DC converter......

The RXV is extremely voltage sensetive. If you are running lights from 1 battery only, that battery voltage is going to drop at a much higher rate than the others causing the overall pack voltage to drop rapidly. When the overall pack voltage drops quickly, the controller senses it and engages the motor brake. If it does it at high speed, you just slammed your chest into the steering wheel and sent your passenger into/through the windshield.

If your local dealer is advising you that you don't need the converter, find another dealer to talk to because that is just about the worst advise I have ever heard someone give when dealing with an RXV. I won't even let one leave my shop without one being installed. Period, end of sentence.
