2 generators simultaneously for backup power
Here is a question i thought some of you might have a thought toward. I am planning on getting the champion inverter gennie for some general use. However I was thinking about some backup power for m...

I know one safe way to do it, which was going to be part of a (for now, abandoned) van conversion project:
A Victron or Magnum Energy inverter, with two 120VAC sources can easily do the above. You won't be doing dangerous stuff like trying to power individual legs at different frequencies... but the inverter will take the incoming power from both sides, put it in the battery bank, and at the same time, push out pure 240VAC that is clean and up to proper codes. Note, this is not cheap, but this is the right way to do it to have the ability to run a load from two generators at the same time.
