I don't know enough about Magnatek converters to say they are junk but I do like how the PD series work better than my Magnatek Model 7445. I also though that the PD Wizard was unnecessary until I installed one in my 1990 Bounder. Now I to plan on replacing the Magnatek as soon as I finish the new planter in the front yard and replace our entry doors. At that point our remodel will, for me at least, be complete and hopefully free up some of our expendable income.
I did not go through BestConverters for the upgrade for the Bounder but I will for the replacement for the Magnatek. The Magnatek cooling fan is very noisy in comparison to the PD, I can hear it without having my hearing aids in.
I just posted my reply after your replied to Bobbo and Chris replied to you, I cannot remember the name of the guy at Best Converters but I do know Chris from posts here on RV.NET and respect his judgment. I'd call BC and ask which is "best, easiest and fits your budget and needs". Ask about the 8300 series at that time.
