So I am upgrading to a smart Progressive Dynamics converter for my Sunseeker 2900. I am reading the installation instructions away from my RV and they say not to use a higher amperage than the original converter. I cant check the amperage on the original right now. Had anyone replaced their converter with a higher amperage?

Some discussion here. I kept asking around and researching after the thread fizzled out. In the end, I'm convinced a modest increase of the amps (say from 50 to 70) is perfectly safe. There are many who've done that.
Personally, I would not do it unless the wiring to the batteries is increased in size also. I doubt whether rv manufacturers oversize the wiring. Even 50 amp to 70 is a 40% increase in amperage.
The new PD is 55 amps. I still can't find the amps on the old one. I know Isaw it somewhere. Thanks for the other thread Ham_Bone, that was helpful. I don't think 55 is so insanely high it will cause an issue.
I see in your profile that you have a 2009 year model 2900. All 2010 and 2011 Sunseekers had 55 amp convertors. It's very likely that your 2009 has the same.

55 is the norm for anything but a pop up. "45"
70-100 are normally big toy haulers and big coaches.
