[RE-wrenches] Magnum Energy Remote Control

[Chris Schaefer]

To All Magnum users, new and old,

            As an Off-gridder myself I to have been waiting to make the jump
to Magnum. After reading this thread I decided to contact Magnum and suggest
that they offer a webinar. Their response was "great idea", thus they are
planning a webinar on 18 July at 0900 PST. Just contact their technical
department to sign up.

Jeff, 

Magnum Energy has done one of the best jobs in the industry of putting their
information out from dealers and consumers alike. The 2012 Renewable Energy
Product & Parts Catalog is very easy to read and comprehend, has all the
product line and accessories, and even configuration pages with material
lists and options. The Accessories pages even have simple block diagrams
showing how the items tie into the RE system.

 

As a retail store owner and and RE system dealer, it is incumbent upon me to
seek out the information I need to be well informed about the products I
offer. Magnum Energy has responded to my needs better than any other US
manufacturer of RE products. 

 

Give Magnum Energy a call and I am sure they will rapidly send you all the
information you need to stay informed.

Thanks to all for the great info on the different remotes and options
offered for Magnum inverters.  However, this thread has found that there are
many more wrenches than just me who did not know which remote was better for
which type installation, that they can display battery info IF you order an
optional battery monitor add-on, and they can start a generator IF you order
an optional generator start module.

 

Perhaps this will indicate to Magnum that they have  problem with many
installers and resellers related to a very limited understanding of the
"options" offered with their inverter line, and they need to do a better job
of getting the word out.  Many wrenches indicated that like me, they didn't
know there was an "advanced" version of the remote, or why you needed it
over the basic model.  Others were not aware of the battery display or
generator start options, or what defaults could be changed or saved.

 

I like this product line and think they are priced right with some great
features.  However, it's a shame Magnum does not want anybody to know
anything about  all the options available  or why we should be offering them
along with their inverters.
