I don't recommend using a higher amp converter as the converter size is based on the load of the trailer and there would be no real benefit of going with an overrated option. That said, if you want to go up 5 amps or so that shouldn't really be a problem but any higher you can run into issues. The Progressive Dynamics Mighty Mini AC/DC Panel and Converter/Smart Charger part # PD4045KA is rated for 45 amps but if you need a different size you can select this from the list below.
