The PD units are IMHO a definite improvement over the WFCO units. WFCO are not known for going into bulk mode charging for most users.
If you dry camp and use a 2000W or smaller generator, I'd recomend the PD60A unit over a bigger one. The reason is that the 60A is already near the max continous rated VA for many 2000W generators. The actual current draw is near 1500VA (much higher than the watts, related to the poor power factor) when charging well discharged batteries. The 70A unit may push you over the edge with a 2000W generator, especially at higher temps and high altitude.
If your not "generator" limited, go for whatever will fit.
