This is the 12 V Quattro rated 5,000 VA, a combined inverter and charger with two AC inputs and an integrated transfer switch. Continuous output is 4,000 W at 25°C, with a peak rating of 10,000 W. Charging reaches 200 A at up to 25°C ambient. Output falls to 3,000 W at 65°C, so ambient heat affects how much it can deliver continuously.
Our take
Two AC inputs and an integrated transfer switch let this Quattro take shore power or a generator and pass the loads through itself. Output is 4,000 W at 25°C but falls to 3,000 W at 65°C, so a hot compartment costs capacity.
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.
