I meant to say full load test it with a couple of 1500 watt heaters.

It may be the last time. It also might be bad contacts on the transfer switch. A good tech can switch AC1 and AC2 or may have the relay.

Yes, voltage fell but never got below ~24.4V when the inverter output stopped. Checked tightness of all battery connections, terminal to terminal cables, virtually no corrosion anywhere. Also, inverter stayed ON, just the output cut-out, then back on then off, then......

I've been servicing this reliable system for the last 8 years. He said after a delay the power shuts off when a moderate load comes on after 5-15 seconds, then back on, then off..... Light loads no problem, the power stays on. The inverter stays on the entire time (yellow light and that famous audio buzz) but I hear a relay? inside the left side of the wiring section with each change of on-off, off-on state. I assume its a repair to a service shop. Ideas? Recommendations for repair shops? I haven't been getting a response from the Solar Cowboyz in Grass Valley.
