I have a Samlex 3012 inverter charger that is powered by 4 x 100 ah LIFEPo4 batteries. Each of the batteries is wired separately to a bus bar using 00 welding cable, this bus bar feeds another one tha...

do a drop voltage test, this will find the issue.
The other thing bothering me is your saying the microwave is turning off? the inverter isn't? the inverter should be shutting down to low voltage. the microwave has no idea about battery voltage
Yes, that’s something that has me curious. I did not change any of the stock settings on the inverter for low voltage or current. As soon as I changed the general setting for low voltage alarm from 12v to 11v, I was able to run everything for as long as I wanted. I have an email in to Samlex to check and will do the voltage drop test during the week to see. I don’t see anything obvious. An easy test would be to tie everything back to a single set of buses and see if the situation reproduces itself.
