About an hour of video review. In part 3 he tests the inverter.
Here's the Cliff notes--- After adjusting a pot, the inverter produced 115V instead of 105V. He got the inverter to power about 20 amps of draw using various devices (down to 107V). An electric heater drawing less than 1500W ran for a couple of minutes before it shut down from thermal overload. The thing is absolute junk and would never produce 3000W.
One thing it did have is an unpopulated full board that would probably offer an internal transfer switch.
In another video, a new owner repairs one with various sized hammers. :B
