Powermax 110 Volt to 12 Volt DC Power Supply Converter Charger for Rv Pm3-55 (55 Amp)

Super cool!!! Easy to hook up, great quality and charging my Lance cab over battery like a champ at 14.6 Volts. The Parallax power unit I had running my Rig burned out for the forth time since 1997 mind you, but I’m not spending the time or money for one of those again. So I bought this unit and relocated it to under my sink for better air flow and easy to replace if this unit ever goes out. Have size 8 AGW wire on hand because that what this unit requires and what size wire that should be used.

Works well

Finally got this Converter installed. It is working perfectly in my camper. Has three phases of power generation, from quick charge to steady system 12 volt to trickle charge. Used original converter chassis so the Power max slipped right back in the panel. Did have to drill some cooling holes. The original unit is no longer made, so, any converter would have required work. The PowerMax is the easiest to convert to my rig! Working Fantastic so far!

Good power supply for ECU programming. Holds constant voltage during ECU module programming. Auto shut off if another power source is detected. Charged fully drained battery under 45 mins. Only con in this power supply is that it doesnt have power supply voltage reading measure display, you have to use volt meter to determine the measurement under fixed voltage supply. If you are programming BMW ECUs I recommend you set the fixed voltage to 14.2 vdc so your output value on terminal 15 and terminal 30 remains between 13.6 to 14 vdc. Voltage supply only fluctuates for the first few mins.

This item has to have a constant power voltage coming into it of 110 to 120 to keep your care battery charged

Installed the converter in June of 2021, stopped working in September 2022. Luckily I was on a local camping trip where I could return home and pick up a battery charger and return to the campground and charge my batteries up enough to get the landing gear retracted. When I got home I did some troubleshooting and tried to find warranty information on Amazon and couldn’t find any so the top of the converter came off and I discovered a blown fuse on the circuit board that was soldered in. Bypassing the fuse with some alligator clips resulted in a blown capacitor. So it buying a new converter for me. Not happy with this one only lasting 15 months. Lucky it happened to me on a local trip and not my wife on one of her boon docking horse camp outs. When it worked it was great but reliability is very poor.

Loud noise but works great

Very easy to install. The item has worked perfectly as described. The only downside is the fan. It is very noisy. We have our power supply underneath in our storage compartment, but we are able to hear the fan in the kitchen. Wished I would of known that before the purchase. It gets annoying especially when your trying to sleep.

The converter arrived on time and worked perfect right out of the box! My motorhome batteries were low so it ramped right up to 14.6 volts, stayed there for about 2 hours, then dropped to 13.8 volts for about 4 hours then went to 13.2 volts and has maintained there ever since. The next day I turned on the furnace all of the lights and both tvs and it held steady at 13.3 volts. It has only been a few days, but at this point I couldnt be happier with this Power Max Converter! Here is the link to a pdf that shows how to install it, that was easy to follow and worked perfectly. Ive had it now for a couple of months and it is still performing great! [...]

I love the LED light letting me know at a glance that the ststem is working :)
