Any help? Mike

Mike, you need to specify what you are running for the 3 or 4 hours. Any 3,000 watt inverter can run a couple of normal/typical batteries down in an hour or less, so depending on what you are running the 3 to 4 hours you are getting may be expected. Maybe even excellent. It all depends on wattage.

It's also important to identify the total capacity of your battery system. The first thing I'd do is a simple energy balance. It may reveal a problem, or perhaps that you are getting what the system can deliver.
