To replace your Parallax 7445 converter you can use the Progressive Dynamics 9200 Inteli-Power Converter # PD9245C. This has the same amperage so you can just reuse the wiring running from the converter to the battery bank. The Parallax 7445 should have a 110v plug on it so it should be a simple swap out to install the # PD9245C.
