It worked as expected
It did what it's supposed to - I put about 500 watts through it with no problems

Nice Balun
I like that it is designed to mount on a mast. The crimp on connections are also very nice and make it easy to attach the wire to the balun securely with a bolt. It worked perfect for my simple 20 meter dipole and I just ordered another one. Good stuff & fair price.I just bought my third unit and it is working excellent (near perfect SWR) like the others but I had to do some minor surgery to it to get my PL-259 connector to fully seat.The problem I encountered was that the SO-239 connector has some strange tolerances that wont allow certain PL259 connectors to fully seat. I am using a very high quality PL259 made by Times Microwave that fits perfect on other SO-239 connectors but not the one in this balun.. I also found several old Amphenol PL-259 adapters in my collection that would not fully seat on this SO-239. Lots of my PL-259s seat perfectly on their connector but not all.I am thinking their SO-239 is a Chinese design of some sort because it has no markings. It looks real good but something is out of whack because not all PL-259s will screw on fully.I have about a dozen Amphenol SO-239s in my antenna parts drawer so I opened the balun (very easy) and replaced the SO-239 connector with one that worked. Very easy to do and it worked.Would I buy it again? yes.This is a very high quality balun and I really like the design of the case that secures it to the mast plus the way that the antenna wire connect using common crimp on ring terminals.As I took it apart to replace the SO-239 I noticed that every nut had a lock washer and the build was very clean and orderly. I will enclose a photo that hopefully shows what I mean.Will it work with 2KW? I have no idea.. I never go much over 100 watts at my station (AA7JC) but I would certainly trust it with 600 watts (which is all my station is capable of).

Low SWR & handled my 600 watts.
It's pretty well made, waterproof & handles my 600 watt output well. SWR showed low.

These Baluns Work Great - Easy To Use
This product is exactly what I needed. I made several of my own, however, this balun worked perfectly the first time, and I was able to easily tune the wire-antenna to 1.14:1. I order two more for 20 & 40 meter bands. I would recommend this product.

Great balun
This balun worked great on making my 20m/40m trapped dipole antenna.
