PowerJack 30000 watt LF PSW SP inverter 2 case module AMG4 version :

PowerJack 30k inverter:

if you notice they purposely misspell inverter (ilverter in their newer ads with new sellers)>>>> perhaps the way to claim to be an new seller and a different product....

I note that it is in a PowerJack box and even if identical products for the most part...still a different sticker is the change...

I have 2 identical control boxes that (one came with a German language manual) I do not speak German but my friends do ...but still the same manual (with the PowerJack girls) which does not correspond much to the newer Module version.... 🤣🤣🤣

one warehouse is in Lansing Michigan, one is Philadelphia, PA and the 3rd is out of Walnut, CA >>>> those are the 3 i have seen in their ads in the USA...that they sh[p from....

PayPal payment seems to be a good solution to part of the issue...

the elusive 30K transformer box is scheduled to arrive today via FedEx....February 28th, 2023.....

 I ordered it (((the elusive 30,000 watt PowerJack LF PSW SP modular version inverter))) on December 5th, 2022 so still faster than August 2022....🤔🤔🤔

My  auction was  December  11  2022  and I  got  2 boxes that match  .   Fed Ex deliver 2 weeks ago  .      You mean the August 6 2022 item ??

in comparison to some people who pre-pay like guinea pigs in August 2022,,,,,(not me) 🤔

but I am still waiting for the 30k transformer box for the modular PowerJack to arrive today....supposedly on the FedEx truck and will be delivered today.... would have been better if they would have arrived together.... I have had the control box for the modular unit for 8 days it arrived on 2/20/2023 ....via the Philadelphia, PA warehouse....

PowerJack eBay sellers seem to be making the products just playing with delivery timing (getting some free float with other peoples money) hmmm hmmm

🤔🤔🤔😎

my last PowerJack deliveries did not have any of the Styrofoam packing but utilized boxes and some cardboard to protect it in shipping..... 

the Styrofoam was always broken anyway and the Styrofoam static cling was aweful..... still>>> I would have to question its ability to withstand the shipping torture test that FedEx often does....

double boxed in PowerJack boxes with cardboard filler???/ at least I can burn the cardboard in the dunnage pile....

PowerJack 30000 watt LF PSW SP inverter 2 case module AMG4 version :

PowerJack 30k inverter:

elusive 30K transformer box is scheduled to arrive today via FedEx....February 28th, 2023

it is labeled as an asl10 transformer on the bottom amg4 also etc

the very heavy 30k transformer box arrived yesterday (February 28th 2023),  but the front connector was damaged so I will need to fix it or wait for a replacement part, 

basically the protective shield smashed the plastic part when some person /persons in the delivery chain decide to drop it multiple times. the double boxing helped a lot the metal protective shield for shipping likely helped the most but at 134 pounds the transformer box is just too heavy for one person...

I helped the FedEx man off  load it to a pallet, I opened it outside...he had to leave quick as he said they (FedEx track the amount of time he is at every stop. he said he had it the previous day but they called him back as his 11 hour work and drive time would put him over the allowed dot driver allowed time.

I went an retrieved my 2 wheel cart and a smaller pallet and removed the protective shield and found the smashed plastic electric connector....basically it is an insulated junction of wire so I could use a different insulated connector I have on hand and reconnect the 3 wires until a replacement part arrives, but many other things to do on the multitask list at this moment... so there will be a delay to use it...

I had to enlist some family help to get it inside up the 3 steps with the cart after i aired the tires up on the cart....and then I repositioned it on a small table for later dissection and repair...

bummer bummer bummer SXXT happens 🤔🤔😎

PowerJack 30k inverter:

elusive 30K transformer box 

the seller responded and said they could express ship the parts...

Hi SirThe delivery always delay, we already think about thats possible about the packing problem, pls let us know what kind of parts we should prepare for you, we can do it by express for you, try offer more full photo, in case you did not noted or missing somewhere need also parts, tks.

i need to pop the top off the case but the center bolt and hold downs appeared intact on the heavy transformer bob,,, small ding on corners...

maybe tonight after the little ones are sleeping...it is in the kitchen right now temporary for checking it out.... it was snowing again yesterday so it had to come inside quick

March 1st already 

🤔😎

PowerJack 30k inverter:

elusive 30K transformer box 

it arrived upside down and diagonal in a badly tattered box after being lost and relabeled etc in the fedex system etc  who knows,

i had been removing snow and we had a couple days above freezing so it was a little muddy in the driveway...

i carefully opened it up

the protective metal shield is what saved it... it has dents in that shield the correspond to the smashed l1 n1 terminal block...

more snow coming next week

It  had a 12 8 2022 date on it. so fairly freshly made via the PowerJack factory .

My  tranvformer was made  after December 22  2022  and is 1/2 inch smaller than the ASL 10.0   .  My ASL 8.0  is a lot bigger than the ASL 9.0  and should  run a 4 ton heat pump this summer .   My case is all  thin sheet metal  and is not stainless steel .    The secondary  L1 and L2  is exeztly  119 vac  .   I see your L1  N1 terminal block is broken   and the protection  cover  is  smash  by Fed Ex .     Ebay has not release  my payment to the seller  and is investigating the  auction  why  the bid was 400 dollars at one minute and  jump to over 700 dollars  and I   won  .     The  seller  want  ME  to cancel  the day after the auction  and I say no   BUT  the seller can not cancel  .

I recently won one auction where I did not get the bid typed in >>> where they had fake hidden bitters and only accidentally hit bid without the number punched in and won for 11 dollars more than the fake bidders so it is a rigged hacked eBay shill bid system going on but i will not cancel either as it is another 30k unit with a few more bells and whistles....for a total of $901.82 with $149.99 shipping and tax all included... my winning bid which i never even place was 713.00 dollars it di dthe same type of jump from 300 to over 680 then i won at $713 without bidding.... how can that be???? must be an temporary way to use other peoples money but i utilized paypal with my credit card so have t see how it works out...
