Drycamper - I have a PD9160 and WFCO 8955 and have done some extensive testing to compare them. One of the characteristics of the PD converter is that it is highly dependent on the voltage of the AC peaks to produce its full output. On 120 volt shore power mine will slightly exceed 60 amps at 14.4 volts. As the voltage drops below 120, the max current at in boost mode drops with it. By comparison, the WFCO holds its boost mode current quite well. I unfortunately don't have an IOTA to test. This peak voltage characteristic comes into play with the generators. The Onan Microquiet (and I believe most small conventional generators) produce a horrible waveform when hit with the "unfriendly" 0.7 PF load of most converters. The RMS voltage is there but the peaks are way down. As a result, the PD converter's maximum output is reduced. The WFCO converter, by comparison, maintains its full output when run by the Onan generator. A Honda inverter generator maintains its peak voltage correctly when driving the converters, making the full PD output is available. When running from the Onan, I'd guess that the 9280 will probably give you 60 amps in boost mode. With an eu3000i or good shore power, I'd expect the full 80 amps to be available.
