Hi Wes,

  You're unlikely to dredge up any FX2000 experiences because NOBODY's 
got one yet! The folks at Outback are still busy squashing bugs, and 
even the beta test inverters haven't been released in any numbers. I'd 
be happy to throw a 1.5 hp subpump, a 5 hp air compressor, and various 
fluoresent and metal halide lights at my beta units...if and when they 
show up! So despite ads in the current Homepower from eager southern 
Oregon distributors (right Bob?), very, very few people have had a 
chance to play with Outback's new toys. (...but I'm SO ready...)
