Just curious ;) - in your original post you mentioned using a "Surgeguard" ... my question - is it really a TRC Surge Guard and if so which model, if not what exactly do you have? :@

Yes, it is a TRC Surge Guard. I have the 34830 seen here http://www.campingworld.com/shopping/item/portable-surge-guard-with-lcd-display-30-amp/81277
Why do you ask?
Since you own a TRC and not a Progressive Industries surge protector you may not be aware that PI has done some extensive testing and found the Yamaha EF2000iS genset capable under
some circumstances of generating a waveform destructive to the Progressive EMS units and will deny warranty coverage for any of their EMS units used with this particular generator.
Progressive Industries / Yamaha EF2000iS Warranty DisclaimerSince surge protector circuit design between TRC and Progressive products is likely similar I'm wondering if a TRC might also be subject to damage if used with the EF2000iS. :@ If so, that then raises the question as to whether the reverse could then be possible - i.e. whether a surge protector that has failed because it was being fed a non-sinusoidal waveform by this particular Yamaha generator could in turn damage the generator. :E I'm not saying that is definitively what has happened in your case but it does make one wonder considering Progressive's concerns about the Yamaha EF2000iS. :h
