I've had one on one of my cars since 2009. I had a problem one summer with a stuck brush, but powermaster repaired it and sent it back to me no charge. I drive my cars quite a bit also, so I would use them again.

That said, I learned about EJ Whitney generator/alternators from this forum, I've had one of theirs on another car since last summer. So far it works great and looks even more authentic than a powergen, so my vote would be to use one of them again. https://www.ejwhitneyco.com/automotive.html
