Is there anything like PD EMS with autoformer, that would keep it 110V+-few% and would only shut down when it can't keep it close to 110 anymore?
Frank's Superautomatic does that.
I have the 30 amp and I don't recommend it.
There is no delay to the power off-on cycle. Under the right circumstances I have seen it switch on-off-on-off in rapid succession.
Thermal circuit breaker rated 35 amps seems to trip way too easy if running 20+ amps continuous. Anyway it trips before the 30a pedestal or 30 amp RV main.
Voltage seems to hang high for too long as it will hold 128-129 volts when it could just bypass. Also my Kipor has a bit high voltage under no load so it has presented an issue if nothing is immediately on. For me it seems to cut off a bit early on the top side.
Mine is eight years old and not really used much although a few times it was really needed to correct low voltage and keep the air on.
