I would say that depends on when and where he's getting that 48 amps
Weather, location, flat panels, Battery SOC
I know from my experience, that with flat panels, possiblity full output is not reached until late morning, by that time the batteries have been receiving a charge for several hours and in most cases won't pull on the solar that hard, the only way to see full power from the panels, is too run the microwave from the inverter while the sun is directly overhead
I have done this, but it is not my normal way off doing things
I have seen max controller output, when the morning was over cast or rainy and I did not run the generator and then the sun came out later in the day, the batteries were able to accept a higher charge rate and the sun was high and the sky was clear ..ie.. perfect conditions
