Time for a new converter..

[TurnThePage]

My 11 year old WFCO 35 amp deck mount unit is checking out. Time for something new.

At one time, I was considering upgrading the wiring, etc., but my little solar set up has really taken pretty good care of the batteries. So.. I'm just looking to install another deck mount unit with perhaps a bit more power and a few more bells and whistles. I figure a 60 amp unit should be more than enough for my two T105s.

It will be about 3 feet from my bed, so I'm hoping for a fairly quiet unit that can quickly top off the batteries and take good care of them the rest of the time if needed.

I've window shopped bestconverter.com. A few good choices there. What would you select?

I have the same trailer a couple years newer. When my WFCO 35 died I replaced it with the PD9245 and have been very happy with the results.

The amps size of the new converter should not be more than what your generator can handle, regardless of the brand of converter you choose.

A Honda 1000 is limited to a 45 amper while a Honda 2000 can do the 60 amper. Above 60 you start to see some converters (like PowerMax) that have PF correction so they can still be run on a 15 amp circuit, while others are non-PF corrected like the PD9280 which needs a 20 amp circuit.

I am a PowerMax fan, but the PD line with the Charge Wizard would be my second choice

This is the one I would install. Check wire size to DC power distribution panel.
