Ok, I am not getting voltage drop anymore and the converter is not humming anymore. I have to get on my knees and put ear next to converter to hear it.
So, I unplugged shore power let it sit for couple hrs. Plugged back to shore power and now the converter is very quiet and at converter the volts read 14.7 and at batteries read 14.6. And now every time I check voltage there is only .1 difference between bats and converter (currently, con is 13.6 and bats 13.5
Did the converter "burn" itself in as Randy said it would and now it is performing correctly. Waiting for him to call back.
