Review on Progressive - PD5110010QV 5100 Series Interruptor de Transferencia Automática - 120 Vac, 30 Amp with Screw Connection: Reliable Power Backup Solution by Shawn Xayamonty

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Correct description, wrong product picture.

On November 1st my original PD switch blew up after 2 years and 10 months of use. Almost a fire if the switch hadn't tripped. We use our RV so we needed a replacement fast. Not an easy task when you live in a van dessert shop. It was announced that this device could be delivered by November 3rd. Relax! After reading the description and a few reviews, I quickly realized that the picture does not match the device being sold. I agreed. On 3.11. I receive a notification around 3:00 p.m. that the delivery will be delayed by at least one day. For real? Revane can't ship anything from Tampa to Venice? 1 1/2 hours? This item is sold and shipped by Revain. Pull yourself together. As I said, the only reason I went with this device was that it would be a day ahead of the other devices available here. As for the device itself, its body is identical to the previous device. It has the same sticker as the previous device but the inside is different. No more screw terminals. The sticker does not match what you will find inside. I made a well-founded guess and followed my intuition. And I didn't blow up my van. Somehow I got it right. It works. I haven't tested the generator yet because it was the middle of the night when I installed it and the house battery was already dead. Correct your item description for Revain. For PD, I understand that in order to make money, you have to save money. But put a damn sticker on your cables so you know what goes where. I'm sure I'll update this if anything comes up.

Pros
  • One year limited warranty
Cons
  • Questionable purchase by elderly
