Wish I could say the same for me. Or perhaps not...
Ironically (predictably?) my Parallax 7355 just died the same way...and only two weeks from end of warranty.
Earlier this morning I talked to Aaron of Southwest Coaches (the nearest Airstream service facility to me) about my diagnosis and replacement. He said he had three replacement units...just put in other units. He has no spares available, so the best he could suggest was for me to bring my coach in next week (so it'd be in before the end of warranty) and leave it while waiting for replacement parts (
"they're coming from China, however long that will take.")
No thanks. I've had zero success with leaving my trailer in the hands of any dealer, out of my sight. And I have no patience for more of the same cheap-o junk. I certainly don't want to miss days of work, traveling twice for something that is likely to let me down again.
So I just got off the phone with Randy at
BestConverter, purchasing the Xantrex
TrueCharge RV 60A XADC plus
XADC 30A Distribution Center. I'm going to toss that junky 7355 as soon as I can!
Cheers,
