I added the PD9260C to my WFCO WF8945 Converter setup that I never could make it go into smart mode charging..
I did this more for a backup since the WF8945 was working and I really wanted the PD9260C as close to the battery bank as i could get.
Since both converters are wired in parallel I just control which one is being used by turning off the circuit breaker controlling each one. The PD9260C smart mode converter is great for adding in parallel with something else with its DUAL DC CONNECTOR arrangement that PD uses on most of their converters.
I can get along just fine using the WF8945 converter since I am aware of its short comings.
When camping off the power grid or in somewhat longer storage time I will use the PD9260C unit.
This is my OFF-ROAD POPUP setup showing both locations of my two converters.
Very happy with my two converters setup and fits well with my type of camping which is mostly off the power grid.
