The 93 indicates PF corrected while the 85 goes with the lower amp, non-PF corrected ones. So with the 75, VA should = watts but the watts given for the lower amp ones would actually be higher in VA than the watts listed.
With the unit on a Honda gen, the VA would be that, but with an inverter you have the inverter's efficiency to consider drawing battery amps to make 120v output. "So the divide by 10 rule"
I was comparing the pm4-75 pfc, which is on the page you linked, with the pm4b-75, which comes up after clicking on the boondocker series square to the right, then clicking the link to the 75 amper.
And I noticed the boost mode outputs are different; 14.4 vs. 14.6; or it's a typo?
yes, the inverter said -90amps, so i divided by 10 to get 9a 120v.
