Does the CPE 2000 run a Microwave easy?
I am needing something for nothing but battery recharging and the only other thing I would need power for really is if we want to use the Microwave a couple times for something.
I saw the YouTube video with a guy comparing the Honda 2K vs. the CPE 2K and the Honda ran a couple fans and then fired up a table saw full power with no power loss at all ... Then he plugged into the the CPE 2K and ran the fans and the saw Barely fired up at all .... then he turned off both fans and still the CPE couldn't power the table saw.
So can one of the CPE's even power a Microwave?
Not sure of my wattage on my rave and my trailer is in storage 30 mins away .. and the owners manual for some reason doesn't have model or info on it.
It's the stock microwave from a 96 Fleetwood Prowler .. I'm sure most microwaves are in the standard 1200 range probably.
I know this can 1600 but that table saw is no more then 1500 and it Bogged Down Big Time.
Just trying to get an idea on what this CPE is capable of powering really.
Thanks so much for the info.
The answer to your question is: it depends on the microwave. It does not start my Panasonic 1350 watt microwave at all, it overloads every time regardless of settings or conditions.
