Why did Onan kill the EC-30W generator controller?

Looks like Onan killed the EC-30W generator controller. Right now, the alternatives are either the Onan EC-30, or the Magnum Energy generator controller, plus the control panel.

I wonder why Onan killed it. It seemed to have made life easy for a number of reasons.
  • Blah. Maybe I might just see about a wired unit then. It is more reliable anyway, and much harder to hack.
  • As of 12/15/2015 this wireless Energy Command part is now obsolete with no replacement. Onan is in the process of preparing the release of a smartphone app that will replace these. No more new or replacement units are available. Doug
  • Discovered more units resting on the warranty returns dock than new units on shelves in the shipping room?
