That is interesting about Magnum: Tech support told me that the 4024PAE was two separate 2000 W inverters. We had problems with a microwave shutting the system down.
That's interesting. I lived off grid for 7 years with a single MS4024PAE. I had one overload shut down in all that time. Microwave (1200 watts @ 120) + well pump (1700 watts @ 240) + vacuum cleaner (1400 watts @ 120) + house loads (200 watts @ 120) + I'm guessing fridge compressor kicked in (600 watts? @ 120). Never had any issues with air compressors, shop tools, 240 volt MIG welder, or anything else.
Do you find you have good reliability with Magnum products?
I have never had a failure with any MS inverter or ARC or AGS that I've installed. I had one BMK fail after 5 years, but that was during a lightning storm.
