Thanks. And this is why I thought 5000W would be more than enough. Simple calculation, but a 1200W microwave, on for a couple of minutes to heat food, would only be 10amps @ 120V. 10 amps drawn from...

My take on loading a 5er is that weight behind the axles lessens the pin weight. It's simple geometry. The axles are a fulcrum, like a teeter totter. The further away from the fulcrum you put weight,...
