The MultiPlus-II 24/5000/120-95 is a 24 V inverter/charger with two AC outputs. It is rated 5,000 VA, delivers 4,000 W continuous at 25°C with a 9,000 W peak, and charges at up to 120 A at 25°C ambient. A 95 A transfer switch handles incoming AC. Continuous inverter output falls to 3,000 W at 65°C.

Our take

The 4,000 W continuous rating is quoted at 25°C and drops to 3,000 W at 65°C, so size your loads against the hot figure if the unit sits somewhere warm. The 95 A transfer switch and 120 A charger share the same box on a 24 V bank.

From our buying guide

On a boat subpart I covers, an electrical component must not ignite fuel vapor around it unless it is isolated from gasoline fuel sources. Ignition protection is the maker's statement.

Check before you buy:

  • It can follow your battery's profile, since not every charger can follow a lithium maker's.
  • On a boat subpart I covers, each ungrounded output conductor from a battery needs a manually reset, trip-free circuit breaker or fuse within 72 inches of the battery.
