Hi happycamper002,
Here is how it typically works.
I plug into a power source. I set the Magnum remote to the limit of that power source (say 15 amps). I turn on the inverter, to enable load support.
Let's say the water heater is on, (1200 watts or 10 amps) and I want to warm up a cup of coffee in the microwave (1591 watts or 13.26 amps)
But 10 plus 13.26 = 23.26 amps. The inverter takes the extra 8.26 amps from the battery bank and supplies it to the RV. Then when the load drops back down to 10 amps the charger portion of the Magnum recharges the battery bank.
BTW I am not the OP. GordonThree started this thread to help me investigate how the Magnum cooling system works, for which I have thanked him.happycamper002 wrote:
I got you. I hate to create a Moebius Loop that will take us to a never ending discussion and lead us back to where we started.
My response to the other poster would address the same concern you have.
I apologize for taking you for the other OP.
