thanks, and you're right about the newer 'EMS' electrical management systems, but that only adds more confusion to those 'new' to RVing, or with only 30amp RVs, as they sometimes don't understand why you'd ever want a system to automatically 'shut off' things...

the EMS is designed to help the owner more easily 'manage' the amperage usage - and I certainly understand the desire, especially if you are 'less than' full 50amp RV service, or your generator is not the size to provide a full 100amps of power - though it seems as though some motorcoaches now have generators than can provide MORE than 100amps, especially at the high end, like Prevost and Newell - those that might be actually more apt to use the generator, even if 50amp service is available - ala, band tour buses with 6 air conditioners, etc.

throw in the discussion of HYBRID inverters, too, and you can have a whole good discussion about 'managing' power.... it's fun! : )


(did I just say 'fun'? oh well)
