Zantrax Link 1000 monitor replacement for Freedom 25 inverter

Post by Carpediem »

My Link 1000 monitor for the Freedom 25, 2500 watt inverter/charger has decided to fail. The unit still seems to control the Freedom 25 but the LED display is dim and flickers. Apparently the Link 1000 is out of production. I have not been able to discern which remotes currently in production will be compatible with the Freedom 25 inverter. Has anyone dealt with either replacing or upgrading their monitors that can shed some light. I have yet to reach out to Zantrax because what reading I have done leads me to believe that would lead to frustration.
Thanks for any input

I don't know if this is what you need but post #5 says this panel worked for his unit although not the exact part you may be looking for.. The part listed is still available....https://www.sailnet.com/threads/replace ... 000.67157/

I installed the monitor and it works fine. It is just not as informative as the Link series as it does not have the amp hours remaining functions but it gives enough basic information. I don't the boat in a way that I need the inverter anyway.
