***LOAD TEST MYSTERY SOLVED*** the 120V duplex outlets are paralleled on L1 of the inverter unit. My 5k heater on the 240v line is fine, but trying to add more than 1.25kw on L1 overloads it. The configuration I had was putting potentially over 34A on one leg!! No wonder the inverter overloaded!! This is a design flaw of the outlet panel when set to 120/240V rather than 120v only. It should be one duplex outlet on L1 and the other on L2.

****To get the full 7600W you need to balance up to 31.6A on each leg of L1 and L2 using the L14-30 outlet.


A big thanks to ‪@jcondon1‬ and ‪@KensSmallEngineRepair‬ for assisting in giving me the idea to repair the part with a moped/bicycle brake cable kit.

Model # 57080. The part# from Harbor Freight is 603124, the combo switch. It's not an expensive part, and it was easy to order from HF. However their logistics and inventory systems are horrendous. One rep tells me they have stock, then I call 7 days later and another rep says they are backordered....There's a good reason I see logistics positions posted on LinkedIn for HF all the time. They need an overhaul.

I kept the parts order open with them. At this point when the part eventually comes in the customer will have a spare.

Hope this repair video helps you guys out! Thank you for watching and supporting the channel!
