Does Your Inverter "Track"?
From day whatever low voltage limit may be As battery voltage increases output AC voltage similarly increases?

Hi Mex,
What I've noticed is that as the load increases the DC input voltage sags. Over time that continues but AC output voltage is not 1:1 with the DC sag. Amps of consumption go up as DC input voltage sags as does AC output voltage but the inverter does try its best to support the AC voltage. Truly large loads do cause AC voltage drop, just as they would on shore power.
The same thing happens with a Yamaha 3000 sIEB inverter generator, but AC voltage (of 122 unloaded) is more "resistant" to sag than shore power. If I push the Yamaha to the edge, AC voltage does start to sag.
I know the Honda generators operate with an AC output of 127 volts.
