Awhile back I had a problem with my new power panel where the converter part burned up. I couldn't find the old post but I thought I would post a follow up and let you know the out come. I finally sent the old unit back to WFCO and they repaired the unit and I now have it back. I plan on getting it installed back in the hauler this weekend and we'll see what happens.

Thanks for all your help.

I've replaced two WFCO's for friends and they were both only about 3 years old. I'm thinking they don't have a long life time. Good converter while they last, though. Excellent specs and matching performance.

This outfit has some pretty good prices for new converters.

Well you know how it is, I was trying to stay within my budget and this unit came along so I bought it and now I have to go with what I bought. Hopefully I can get it installed this weekend and see what happens. If it blows up again i'll just not worry about that part of the unit and use my pro charger to keep the batteries up.

They did what they were supposed to do although they probably should have replaced it being it was only used two weeks but things are tight right now and as long as it works I don't really mind.
