MagneTek 3240 replacement
My converter in my '95 Sunnybrook TT has started intermittent humming and the lights are dimming. Based on what I've read, this means the converter is probably going bad. Correct? I have a MagneTek...

Right or wrong, I ordered the Boondocker converter this morning. The reviews for both units are very positive and the Boondocker has one year more warranty. As westend said, I probably can't go wrong either way.
My converter is acting up on our trip, so right now we're operating on 120v and the battery. I have the converter shut down. Everything is working well this way.
I know you keep an eye on battery SOC but, if you brought along your battery charger and have 120V available, plug that sucker in. I'd hate to see you have a battery issue with your new converter.
BTW, installation time is a good time to upgrade charge circuit wiring. Nearly all TT's are built with barely adequate wire in that regard. I'd suggest AWG 4 (and make that welding cable if easily available).
Good luck with the new Boondocker! A few Forum members have them and are posting their results when in use. All look like good reports.
