nothing more than a battery charger,   made a little better,  cleaner dc,
most have a fuse on the 120 line,  and one  inside the step down transformer
itself,  if there's ac coming out of the big transformer, check the bridge,
then regulator,  most just get bad solder around the big bias resistors from
running for ever,  or the big transformer opens,   as always if its mounted
on a heat sink,  expect it to get hot,  first place I'd check,  its good
money around here in the camp ground area, I take a regular old  battery
charger out to replace the unit,  the big 40 amp roller type,,  almost all
campers run all there lights on 12 volts,  this converter is to turn 110 ac
into 12volts,  and thats all.
