You should be able to go to 32kW with four Outback Radians. I agree, there are not enough 32-100kW split phase inverter system options. With LiPO batteries becoming popular, a high integrated charging capacity is desirable in larger battery capacity scenarios, especially if trying to maximize generator efficiency through reduced run time.
