Replace the lead acid battery?

Hey Guys,
I'm thinking of replacing my factory Interstate lead acid battery (only one) with a Battle Born LiFePO4 100ah deep cycle battery. Our RV is solar prepped (whatever that means) but we have no plans to go solar at this time. I like the weight difference, no maintenance, greater storage capacity and the fact they hold most of their charge over an extended period of storage.
But I’m looking forward to your thoughts. I understand that they are a direct replacement and will work with factory charging equipment already on board. Or is there something else I need to get in order to use the lithium battery? We are not full time but hope to be “more time” since I retired and my wife is an educator.
