I went to exercise my generator and forgot that I had left a 1500 watt heater turned on. In the south I use my roof air for loading the genny.
I did find out that even with load support from the Magnum 3012 and the Microair Easy Start that it overloaded the 2800 VA Yamaha. Nor could the Magnum reliably handle the load by itself. It did start up once with this overload--but the load was 287 amps @ 12 volts (3444 watts @ 112 volts AC)
