Magnum inverter, Yamaha Generator
For anyone that is curious... A recent thread came up about about abnormal charging from a Magnum inverter, using a Yamaha generator as the AC input. My Magnum is a Magnasine MS2812, software versi...

Instead of the threesome of electrical experts high-fiving each other (!), why not explain in clear terms what you think the Magnum hybrid is doing, other than what it's been quoted by Magnum as doing?
My understanding is, if you have limited shore power (p1) and a Magnum hybrid capacity (p2), then you can supply AC power equal to (p1+(p2x(magnum power factor)). This until the battery capacity drops to the lower limit, and not before.
The best shot I've seen today.
A big gun (Magnum pistol?) firing blanks. :-)
Perhaps a water pistol would work better filled with Kool-Aid.
The hybrid Magnum can be combined with an Auto Generator Start—unlike a typical inverter. It may have other features.
If you have in your person, a design premise of the hybrid, somewhere it will say: “when in-load support mode, the inverter is capable of providing 60 amps of power”.
That is where this statement become devious. Most current-capacity in RVs are rated either 30 amps or 50 amps. . . where would you manage this high 60 amp current.
Even if you max out at 50 amps (using a 50 amp load center) 60 amps is still way too much when the device is subjected to continuous loads.
