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...

However, we do no dry camping at all, and the battery just gets topped off and maintained from time to time. My battery is only a Group 24. We don't have any plans anytime soon to change our camping style, either.
....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)....
Fortunately, the wires are easy to get to, and if I ever see the need to upgrade, it won't be a big deal. But thanks for the suggestion anyway!
