We are very happy that in spite of your wishes for specific features, the new PurePower+ units are performing in your system the way we intended.

You may find the appearance of the voltage sine wave a little less elegant, but is a small compromise for the improved specifications. The new units have a near unity power factor, a big improvement in voltage accuracy (+/-1% vs +/-3%), and much higher continuous power and peak output.

I will take it as a given that you are not in love with Hubbell twist lock receptacles. Please remember that they are a "bonus" addition to the 10 Hubbell 5-15 receptacles - same as before - and do not occupy space that could be used for more duplex outlets. They make an excellent high contact receptacle for high power components, or to attach a shielded power bar for those who need additional receptacles.

Reliability, and with it a vastly improved customer service record, was a key objective in the new design. Our experience to date supports that intention.

An even better information display and wireless control capability are features we had to sacrifice to expediency. They are in the works and will be a simple modular upgrade.
