IMHO, difference between Balmar and Ample Power is like comparing Florida to California sunshine, both companies are excellent choices. That said, I have been very happy with Balmar as I have owned both a single and a dual alternator manufactured by them and also have had two of their voltage regulators the last of which is a 512.

Personally I would stay away from Xantrex until that shake up settles down and the new products are around to stand the test of time.
