A hardy Hello to a "neighbor" aka Montana RVer
As the other folks said your converter has been given a bad reputation here on RV.net. From what I have seen over the last several years it's mostly due to poor installations not the unit itself.

I have been doing this stuff for 40 +++ Years and enjoying helping out
