Thanks for the tip

Yahoo Message Number: 4311
Thanks Fred and Dick. I think you may have answered some questions for me.
The problems I am presently experiencing could easily be due to the low voltage at this park, DeAnza Harbor Resort in SanDiego. I have discussed the low voltage with several other owners of 50 amp coaches similar to mine. I have owned my Intrigue for over three years and have traveled quite a bit. I have found very few parks with 50 amp service and have had my share of "poppin breakers" in 30 amp service parks.
A couple of friends here in San Diego have installed a voltage booster manufactured locally and sold under the name of "AutoFormer". It is designed to boost low voltage up to the required 110 volts. It can be purchased in 30 amp or 50 amp versions.
I have been considering purchase and installation of the 50 amp type, but I have not investigated any others. Looks like I should have put one on a long time ago.
Have any of you had any experience with voltage boosters and if so, what brand name, supplier, etc?
Thanks again, this is a great resource for owners who must continually deal with these temperamental machines. Several months after getting adjusted to this, my first high-line coach after eight gas rigs, I gave it a big hug (figuratively speaking) and made friends with it all over again and we enjoy the three or four months a year we spend in it.
