Hey guys I have written about so many things I need a refresher on the
power converter. I am going to order one shortly. I know the 45 amp
with charge wizard is sufficient. Would there be a down side to order
the 60 amp unit with charge wizard, or what would be the bonus to
this. I just really ned to know if the 60 amp is any better for our
needs because I am willing to spend the extra money, or am I just
flushing money down the toilet? Oh yeah I am putting sensors in all of
my tanks for my monitor system. I have a JVR with the screws and
rubber grommets to drill holes for in the tanks. Has anyone had to
drill holes for the dark tank while bolted to the bottom of the rig.
If so how and where were they placed? Any help would be great trying
to button these things up.

45 amp should do you. I have two converters installed. The main one is the 45 amp model. I have never found a need to turn on the the second one. If you are really worried about it, spend the extra money and get the larger one. It is more a matter of personal choice than need.

G'day,
I went with the 60 amp unit because of the dimensions.

No need for overkill.
