2, FX2000's are the same size as one 4024/4048/5548. You get ~3KW per unit.
4, FX2000's would be ~12 kW. The 2 kW rating is incredibly conservative. ONE
will start and run loads that a 4024 will not. The rating is not firm yet
but will probably end up being around 3 kW at 35 degrees C. They will surge
to 4200 watts for 4 minutes. These things are WAY cool. More mosfets =
better wave form and they are sealed so stay clean inside.
