I would not look for the same model.. Depending on one question I would look at one of two Progressive Dynamics models
Is your converter a STAND ALONE.. I have seen a 7455 that is.. If so 9245 from Progressive Dynamics.
Is it built into a power distributrion panel.. IF so the 4655 same company.
When I got my house, in 2005, I found they put in a Progressive Dynamics Intella-Power 9180 with optional wizard (Equal to the 9280 with optional dongle) There is a difference in the option. I did some heavy duty research and still am looking and I have yet to find a BETTER converter than the Progressive Dynamics wizard controlled jobs. Which is best (9100 with option or 9200 with or without) depends on you the user.. If you ahve to ask, ti's 9200 with or without (you need to know how to use the dongle) If you are a "Super User" than it's the 9100 with wizard.. Technically. I'm a super user. but I do not take advantage of the "Super" functions on the 9180.. Only the standard "Dongle" functions and then only on rare occasion.
But the ONLY converters I would recommend are Progressive Dynamics with wizard.
Your batteries will thank you by lasting longer and paying for it.
