Are the larger transformers AMG? Does it matter? Did Helen run off with Ray Jungle Power? The timing is suspicious.
The ASL5.0 transformer for AMG has 6 wires . I like the ASL5.0 not AMG has 5 wires . Need to ask PJ in China if the REV 11.3 control board will work with the discontinued ASL5.0 five wires transformer . It is very suspicious that they leave PJ in China at the same time . Ray Jungle Power still have 2 active accounts on ebay with different name . Helen still has her original ebay account and is still working for PJ but in a different department in Walnut (not Walmart ) on what to do with all the returned inverters and repairing them but not deal with complaint .

As far as electronics are concerned, there is zero difference between any of the transformers (or control boards) that PJ has made. Any control board to any transformer (of the general same voltage specification)...no change/no problem.

As far as I know, the "AMG" has to do with the winding specification. "ASLxx" defines the core size.
kinda curious that the "AMG" spec matches the GS spec pretty closely, hehe.

AMG is an acronym for All Most Genetry

Haha. Might as well.....for the voltage spec and nothing else.
Is there an asl5 available....48v?
If not the asl2 should be able to handle intermittent loads

ASL2 handle resistive load but not the inductive load like well pump when surge last more than 5 seconds . Sean has ASL5.0 in his barn but no time to check . ASL5.0 was discontinued but ASL5 AMG is available but shipping from China is not worth it .
Not in a hurry for it, but definitely interested in the asl5

No idea where that nonsense is coming from. Sean sold off all the extra transformers he had before he moved from the Lansing address. He is not doing PJ repairs anymore, and as such does not have access to spare parts such as PJ transformers.
worth noting that an old-style AS-5 transformer that I got in a "9000W" PJ inverter, would overheat at 3kw.

Best to not do anymore testing with Powerjack inverter . Many parts I get from ebay are BAD and the wires arc and on fire . PJ in CHINA discontiued many parts so parts are not available .
No matter
This 8k they sent me runs pretty well
Been running the house on it and only issue I've had was blown fuse at 4500W........kinda expected as it's a 20A fuse
Bought the NOS 6K GS unit so it won't matter long
I have now modified my PJ unit by removing most of the transformer supports
I'm running 1 strap and no center bolt allowing air flow through the center as the center of a toroid has the same thermal energy as the outside in a much smaller area
It runs much cooler now

Anyone doing PJ repairs is going to be almost impossible as Powerjack only make rev 11.3 control board . Sean latest youtube say he will sell working PJ inverters with NO warranty and used parts with no test and NO warranty . He will not sell parts from a working iunverter and used parts will come from non working inverter .

seems odd he(Sean) is now advertising and selling off his PowerJack stuff.....see on the gs website and his recent YouTube videos....he must be hiding stuff from ya...🤔
PowerJack sellers just get new accounts under new alias.
I have dealt with several before they get into trouble on eBay and disappear....
rayjunglepower was the latest fake abusive PowerJack sales account on eBay that is now non-existent...
money is their lifeline....so next alias please!
you do not know if a Jack is a Jill or a Bill or a David.
and Helen is still there....???? just not into complaints department...
I can not tell by email or text if any of them are real...skype accounts...same thing>>> can't tell a Jack from a Jill
I do not speak Chinese and will never go to China. I doubt anyone from gs has ever seem any of them or ever traveled to China/Taiwan or actually been able to either...
just blindly trusting them to send something???
must be a Confucius warning they keep to themselves about buyer beware!!!!
they claim Taiwan made but not likely as most originate out of China....
has anyone ever seen any of these fake people???
my opinion, I have never seen any one of them....
at least the cc companies and eBay got my money back when they sent the piece of paper crumpled up in a tiny card board box or the flat envelop with only a piece of paper....
seen more than one of their scams....
what do they get except bad publicity for these fraud schemes??? do they gain on the float of the money....does the credit card company and/or eBay take the hit???
just curious?
more snow and colder than yesterday and more cold n snow coming this week....
off grid in South Dakota 😎
the above dribble is for your Saturday morning pleasure....
PJ is real
They do sell real inverters
Their first stuff was pretty bad but they improved..........
Than they got more concerned about weight than performance and cut back on capability (but not labeling)
