Just bought a new converter off of Amazon and after I get it home I find out that it doesn't have a serial number on it. According to Progressive Dynamics it's some sort of a knockoff product and they won't warranty it. They tell me it's illegal for Amazon and this third party vendor to be selling these. So back it goes tomorrow.....already had it installed....Maybe this has been addressed on this forum I don't know.

I thought imitation was the sincerest form of flattery? :BWas the converter advertised on Amazon as a PD?

Well Amazon will take it back anyway.

Lots of knockoffs being sold by online vendors. :( I wanted to replace the LCI tongue jack on my Coachmen with an Ultrafab, a model I had previously owned ... looking on Amazon and eBay I almost got sucked into buying any one of a number of knockoffs that looked identical but on closer inspection were not Ultrafab. :M I passed and ordered an authentic Ultrafab through my dealer ... more costly, but it's not a knockoff. :B
