Yup. But it belongs to someone else.

Using 2 8-D batteries let's plugger in and connect to 2 heaters. One set at 1650 watts the other 800.

Well well output voltage sagged eight volts. Input 12.15

Let's call this a 2000 watt max unit. Noticed interior heat builup. Not enough fan.

Drew down the 8-Ds. Plugged the unit into 120vac.

Hmmm..72.6 amperes. Let's call this a 70 amp charger. Click-clickity-click battery charging type of battery pre-select


Next. An HP color laser plus a heater load. Printed OK.
1 HP water transfer pump startup while laser printing. OK

Love that The Circus Is In Town paint job

Owner took it. It's for a whole office UPS for a commercial print shop.

For 298 I have seen worse.
