complaints when using a hughes autoformer
I am looking at a used hughes autoformer. I know some parks rules say they are not allowed. Some parks we have been in, I have seen voltage at @ 102 to 104 with my a/c on. I would be using a PI 3o...

This weekend I had my autoformer in use however no one else seemed concerned about the low voltage. Without an EMS or at least a meter I imagine they were not aware the low voltage condition existed.
As the saying goes "Ignorance is bliss"
Totally unscientific but I'd bet that describes 99.9% of RVrs. :R Of the many friends and others we know who camp I can't think of a single one who owns an autoformer and only one other than myself who plugs in using an EMS ... virtually everyone else simply plugs in and doesn't give it another thought. :S No wonder my own dealer does a brisk business every season selling replacement converters and microwave ovens, including myself before I figured out how damaging low voltage can be. :( Yeah, apparently "ignorance is bliss" ... until you suffer a failure and have to ante up to fix the damage. ;)
