[VAC] Re: Questions on Uni-Volt



Mary,
 The UniVolt has nothing to do with the control panel, you just replace
the UniVolt with a modern 3-stage converter/charger such as the
Inteli-Power like I have. The only fly in the ointment is if your setup
is one of those that incorporates the 12-volt branch circuit fuses into
a panel in the UniVolt. If that's the case, you'll need to add a fuse
panel of some sort; these are available from places like West Marine and
probably even your local NAPA store.

Some AirStreams have a switch for the UniVolt, mine had a seperate
breaker feeding it. Unfortunately, the breaker was somewhat hard to
access, being under the lavatory in the bathroom.
