I thought of going for a smaller amp converter/psu such as a PM3 - 35 to 60 amp. However the price for a new PM3-35 is at least ~$100.00.
I suppose I went with the PM4-75 amp because of the price and wanted some veratility and leeway in case I need to install into another RV with a larger battery bank and to go off-grid with a geny.
In the past I have gone off-grid with the Class-C for up to several months. Mostly up in the mountains where there are zero utilities. Trying maintain batteries becomes an issue. Without DC the refrigerator stops working, no pumps for water, no fans, etc. and the RV basiclly becomes a shelter.
I also have an older Class-B I'm planning upgrading for off-grid use so perhaps I'll find another smaller converter for the Class-C and install the 75 amp into the Class-B camper van.
The other thing is I'm thinking of instead of cutting the cord of the PM4-75LK is to install a fused 120 VAC recepticle into the cupboard for the converter. Which is what I probably should have done for the PD9280.
I'm also thinking of installing a vent into the door of the cupboard where the converter will be installed, but am uncertain how much air space for heat disapation the converter actually requires?
The cupboard is a little smaller than ~21" x ~15" x ~12" as there's a small part of the wheel well protruding from the cupboard's floor.
