SW4024 and Pizzo Ignitors [RE-wrenches]

[Jay Peltz, Peltz Power]

Hi All,

What I'm curious about is that "glow bars" only use a few hundred watts max.
I don't understand all this talk of overloading a 3500 watt genny?

I think the problem is not in acutal power useage but in some other problem
such as wave form.  I've got a customer ( haven't been back out to the site
yet) who says their microwaves work fine on the inverter, but don't work
with the genny ( SW4024) which is a 4.5kw onan in good shape.

Remember its not the size, its how it works!!
