Expert Reply:
Hey Dennis! The Progressive Dynamics 4500 Series RV Converter w/ Charge Wizard and AC/DC Distribution Panel # PD4575K18LS8 you were looking at will be the best option for your 50 amp service conversion. You will also need a 50A power inlet like the SmartPlug # SM79FR and power cord # SM86FR. More than likely you will need to upgrade the gauge of your wiring running to the power center to handle the higher load.

Hey Dennis, how did your 50 amp conversion on the Airstream go with the Progressive Dynamics power center? Did the wiring upgrade work out smoothly? Your update could make it easier for others planning the same upgrade.
