[Jay]

Hi Chad. 
Stay away from magnum. 
Do you want to keep that 12v or make changes?

They have a generator that currently feeds an old Trace DR inverter to charge (what appears to be from photos) a smallish sized battery bank. They don't have the information locally on the battery capacity, but the bank is lead acid and is configured at 12V. It appears the inverter may have finally stopped working and they are looking to replace it with a true sine wave version.

We've used a Magnum version for a similar project back here in AZ back in 2019, but it appears they may have left that line behind?... The generator is rated at 10kW and the homestead is located at roughly sea level. 120V output is fine.
