Pianotuna, yes, they can be paralleled if the positives, every positive from every power supply is fed through a rectifier. it's very own.
I chose SHOTTKY look on eBay and make sure the rectifier is rated to take 50 amperes.
But as NinerBikes pointed out - beware of inrush current. Four of these units will tax a 20-amp AC feeder line upon startup. A 30-ampere feeder would be better, or you can make your knees wobble and price a SOFT START module to feed incoming AC voltage.
staggered delay on start AC timer modules (3) would also negate the inrush issue.
Two of these paralleled, will tax a 15 amp AC feeder. Especially if your voltage drops below 120V on start up... Seriously, NO BS. I don't know electronic circuitry well, but staggering, as Mex suggests, is better than doing a big draw, all at once. I can assure you that two of these 30 amp units, turned on at once, paralleled, will stop an Eu2000i with it's 1600 watts 2000 max watts, cold.
