I have a Magnum 12v 3kw inverter 125A charger that is about 3 years old. It's has a minor issue since say one that hasn't been more than a nuisance until recently.
Every few minutes, I hear a very audible relay click. Apparently, the 120vac drops out momentarily which I found out when running my watermaker off inverter (can hear the pressure pump drop very briefly). Watermaker pressure hi-pump draws just under 1000 watts so we'll within the 3000w continuous rating. And again, the relay drop-out on the inverter happens all the time whether or not it's underload, just never noticeable until I started running the watermaker.
Magnum has not been responsive, though in fairness it's only been a couple days. Thought some of the TF gurus might have a breadcrumb for me to chase.
Thoughts?
