Lightning to Power House??

[Maquis]

I finally spoke to an electrician. As written, the truck can produce 9kW or 9600watts. He divided 9600/240 to get 40amps. As he explained it, the truck can power a 40 amp circuit (or the sume thereof) and no more. My present house has a 200amp service so the truck could power 20% of the house - NOT the whole house. I feel the Sunrun site is misleading as it says it will power your house. Yes, some lights and a coffee pot but... wish I had understood this months ago..

The limitation is in the inverter external to the truck.
Just because you have a 200A service it doesn’t mean you use it.
I’m using the ProPower for backup which is only 7.2 KW and I will be powering virtually everything except my pool, A/C, and sauna.
