Thanks for input. I did contact RoadTrek who were very responsive and moved me to their new supplier KS2Corp. They are offering newer different units with different form factor and remote. Microgreen are still around, and have a similar but newer unit from different Chinese OEM. Might be the best option, but still slightly different form factor. I am now communicating directly with Chinese wholesaler who is helping but needs the actual serial info off the PCBs to verify exact unit (i.e. I will need to take unit apart..).
Hi All !!!
As a Graduate Electrical Engineer (BSEE from Michigan Technological University) and Owner of a 2018 Erwin Hymer Sunlight Van2 Class B Motorhome, I strongly recommend that you stay away from Anthony Scappaticci who runs KS2Corp, 137 rue Saint Ferdinand, Unit 274, Montreal, QC H4C2S6,
anthony@ks2corp.com, (438) 638-9042
This man is a crook and should be ashamed to call himself an electrical engineer
In 2018 purchased my brand new Erwin Hymer Sunlight Van2 from Camping World in Houghton Lake, MI (before Hymer went belly up)
Scappaticci/KS2 supplied the entire electrical system, including (2) 200 Amp Lithium Ion Batteries and the 12VDC-120/1/60 AC Inverter.
The inverter failed after a year or so.
I tracked KS2/Scappaticci down to find a new replacement. He said the one I have is too small, and tried to sell me a bigger one of his.
He also said the Lithium Ion Batteries I have were a poor design, and then he head his own "Better" ones.
He tried to sell me replacements for the junk he originally supplied to Hymer for my unit.
I also asked him for the Wiring Diagram of my Van2 because he wired the whole unit in Cambridge.
He sends me some junior high school kind of Flow Diagram.
This is not a Wiring Diagram
This guy is of no help and this is not what I call customer support.
I decided to buy the inverter from him Scappaticci/KS2 because he led me to believe his design was unique and I couldn't get this anywhere else.
And then he tried to charge me 0ver $300 US Dollars over the sales price for shipping alone !
I told him I will send one of my company trucks to pick it up instead.
HE REFUSED.
This guy is a criminal.
I finally found a way around him.
If anyone wants my help, please feel free to contact me.
I charge nothing, I just hate to see people getting ripped off by the likes of this Creep.
And I won't be surprised if Sprinter blocks this message posted from me, since he supposedly their supplier (God forbid).
