My XW 6048 has been only partly satisfactory. I "upgraded" from a SW+
2524 and have found good and bad things about the change.
Good Most everything, very nice interface,
Bad doesn't charge well with my small Honda is3000 Which I use
seasonally. Also the no load draw is a lot more than my old inverter.
I'd recommend it only if there's enough power to support a hefty no
load draw and if the generator was no less than 6 kW.

Drake - The XW4024 is almost identical to the XW6048 but can produce
4.0kW of AC power and uses a 24V battery bank. All the auxiliary
components (PDP, SCP, charge controller, etc...) are the same for
both inverters.
We've had very good experiences with the XW system. With about 15
installed so far (4024s and 6048s) the only issue we've had was 1
control board that went bad (easily fixed after Xantrex sent the
warranty replacement).

Hello Wrenches,
What has been your experience with the XW 4024? Is it a scaled down
version of the 48 volt models? Is it reliable?
Thanks in advance.
