As far as the power restoration delay time, I'm good with 136 seconds. More time to diagnose the problem and react. 15 seconds is a bit short.

React to what? If the EMS sees something it doesn't like it simply won't pass power on to the rig regardless of whether delay is 15" to 136" ... you have all the time in the world to decide what to do about it, based on the what the error code is telling you. I mostly leave mine on the shorter 15" setting because we don't often use A/C and therefore don't have frequent need to protect it's compressor and I find the shorter 15" delay much more convenient, especially when I'm working on the trailer and am repeatedly applying and disconnecting power to it. A shorter delay is also more convenient when camping, for obvious reasons.

Thanks for the responses, but I was looking more for a review from someone who actually owns one, on the unit's actual performance. How easy they are to read and diagnose issues, how they reacted when faced with a problem, or didn't, when called into action. That sort of thing.

I do own a Progressive 30 amp EMS, a hard wire EMS-HW30C which as I mentioned operates exactly the same as the portable version, other than the portable's delay is fixed at 136" because it's a sealed unit. There's really no "diagnosis" per se as the displayed error code will tell you what the error may be and it's previous error code function will tell you what error may have occurred, say while you were away from your camper. What other than that do you want to know?
