PD 9180 needs 20 amp cord?
Hey all, With all this converter talk recently, I noticed that the prog. dyn. PD9180/9280 converter comes with a 20 amp cord and plug. Can't tell if the cord wire is 12awg but probably. Fine. So...

My 9280 came with the 20amp plug. Sticker on it says 1500 amps. I thought this was pretty bogus, considering that people routinely run 1500 amp space heaters on normal plug/outlet.
I figure it's a marketing ploy to make their converters seem super high-powered. Or, if I put on my less paranoid hat, maybe it's just intended to have the effect that it does -- to make us think.
I got a 30 amp cord and will put a 20amp female end on it, for use at rv parks. I also bought a 20/15 adapter. When I stay at someone's house I will ask where they plug in a microwave or space heater without tripping a circuit :B.
Ya exactly
