Help with Converter problem, please.
Brought DW home from hospital Friday after her TKR. All went well, now PT. Had a bad storm while at the hospital and lost shore power. Now it appears that I have lost 12V out from the converter, no 12...

Get an IOTA or Progressive Dynamics replacement converter. Boondocker will short charge the battery to 70/75% and drop voltage for absorption vs the others that hold voltage up for a few more hours. Since you boondock a lot you will wish you had just replaced the WFCO long before it failed.
This, and if you boon dock a lot, I'd opt for the 14.8 volt Iota version over the 14.4V PD version. Hope you have a Honda EU2000i generator or larger for the 45 amp version. In either case, get the pendant that comes with it, and use the boost feature religiously to keep your battery charge up.
Agree with this but the PD is voltage based. The Boondocker and Iota are current based and I'm watching both do a wonderful job charging. The boondocker charges at 50+ amps at 13.56 volts whilst the PD charges at at 30 amps at 14+. Both 60 amp units after an hour. Go figure.
