Pairing with another generator

[Lonewolf]

Does anyone know if you can pair the power boost generator with a stand alone generator to get more (Watts) Power?

I have a 2700 Power house inverter gen. that if I could pair with the power boost Generator I would have 5400 watts

OR

Is there a way to shut off the 110Volt side and redirect that 3600 Watts to the 220V side to double the wattage.

IF it is possible, you would need to use a paralleling kit to do so. Personally, I wouldn't chance it. I've only ever seen generators that are built with paralleling capabilities tied together.

If you are connecting from the L-14 30 amp 220v outlet, then you have all 7.2kW available (circuits A+B).

The ProPower system, AFAIK, does NOT support generator pairing.

My understanding is if you plug into the 240 it draws from both to generate the current to support 240v. Of course my generator has been faulting off for almost 6 mos whenever there is moisture of any kind . I await the magical OTA by april to address this problem. When my generator ran it ran the 240 drawing both banks for current and once i had each bank of 110 running up to its limit for 3 hours

Without a lot of electrical equipment, cost alone would cover the cost a 10 to 15kw generator, you could try and not let the smoke out of one or both units. If you do try it, film it and post the explosion and fire on here.

I don't believe your math is incorrect.

A 2700 inverter combined with a 7200 inverter ain't a 5400 inverter.

I agree that combined inverters are designed for it. This is not.

The 240 is both sides at 120 each to get to the 7.2kw.

On the AC Side this is unsafe, you don't have the equipment to parallel generators. On the DC Side of the voltage regulators aren't matched as to Load droop, it is also unsafe...

Thanks everyone not possible to pair with a parallel kit. On my truck when I see the load on the screen it shows 3600 on 110 and 3600 on 220. So I am only getting half the7.2k on 220v. When I ordered my truck I was led to believe the full7.2k could be used on the 220v circuit. Unless I am missing something I ccan't get more then 3600 on the 220v outlet.

3600w on 220v means you're only using one of two lugs that have power...

So you have a 3600w load on circuit A, and the same on circuit B? That indicates the generator is delivering 7200w. I don't think it matters whether you have a single 220v cable, or 4 110v cables, or a combination.
