They have a 120 amp version calling your name ;)
PM3 vs PM4 is the 4 has the short 14.4 boost ever 24 hours right?
I keep looking for the PM4 MBA but only see PM3s.
This is the PM4 MBA for a WFCO. I suppose it would work in other brand power centre's too with some "adjustments"

Randy has renamed his converters, but AFAIK they are still supplied by PM to Randy's specs.
The PM4 started as the then new Randy version he was selling a while back where the 4 was the extra "equalization" stage the PM3s didn't have. Randy also made his 14.6 instead of 14.4. These PM4s might be 14.4 directly from PM stock. BandRV has a chat site to ask on.
I don't have the latest news on all this, but PM has been trying out the new LK models, which have both 3-stage and ADJ using a switch and a pot --two holes in the side of the chassis to operate it. So far BoatandRV seems to be the one selling those but on Amazon, not their own site! I don't know where the LKs stand at this point in the trial period PM is running with those.
