Ok here is my story .One halloween weekend (10/29) came home from church to dead batteries. Testing showed Progressive Dynamics 9180 failed.. Got a Deltran Battery tender delux (2/20/70 amps) and set it in 20 amp mode for 24 hours till it dropped to tender mode.
Drove to Tekonsha MI (From Davision MI) parked at the TA overnight (used to be the Tekon but guess it got sold to TA Tekon has history). Next day (10/30) Headed back north (by car) to Marshall, walked into a building and the woman said "Can I help you" Pointed to the 9180 under my arm and said "Dead".. She pointed me to a pair of double doors I said thank you and walked through those where a 2nd woman said "Can I help you" and I again pointed and said "Dead" she said "on my desk"
Walked out a bit later 240 dollars lighter with a brand new factory refurb Back to Tekonsha hooked it up. plugged in my original wizard and off to Where I am now (My winter quarters) it's still working,.
