AIMS Power 6000 Watt Pure Sine Inverter Charger 48Vdc & 240Vac Input to 120 and 240Vac Output 50 or 60Hz

Since installing February 8, 2016 it worked perfectly until 3 days ago. It has stopped charging and is staying in shore power mode during early morning hours. The only way to get it to cycle properly is to cut shore power off briefly and then back on. It will begin charging when the battery gets low again but then repeat itself during the night again by not charging or inverting. Waiting on Tech Support's reply.It seems to be a quality inverter with fast switching time. It runs fridge, microwave, two coffee pots, TV, and all lights all at the same time.Update: Tech Support very quick. My ac power may be a little out of spec causing charger not to function correctly. I changed dip switch setting and will see how unit works.Update 03-01-2016: DIP switch setting made no difference.Update 03-04-2016: No response from Tech Support as of 03-18-2016Update 04-20-2016: Still no response from Tech. I figured out charging problem. Battery temp sensor was preventing charging due to my not checking battery levels often enough. The battery closest to inverter, which has the temp sensor on it, was extremely low causing battery to heat up. I have eight 12v batteries and they need topped off every two weeks. The inverter occasionally will not switch back to invert mode. I can kill the ac input and it will immediately go to invert and may go for days without acting up again. I still like it as I originally wasn't looking for one with transfer switch anyway.Update 07-14-2016: Gave up on hearing from tech support concerning problems back in March 2016. Lightning struck today and unit no longer works. Notified Tech Support on this new problem. Will wait and see. Wanted to have a standby unit for backup and still thinking about this same model but I might wait on reply before ordering a second one.Update 07-14-2016: Tech Support said warranty will cover repairs but I would have to pay for shipping it back. I also purchased the same unit as a replacement/backup.Update 07-19-2016: Replacement received but was damaged. Fan was completely broken loose with parts sliding around inside. Ordered another unit and it came in with same damage on fan. UPS driver said these type of shipments should be done by a freight service. Waiting on third unit to come in.Update 08-06-2016: Received repaired unit from AIMS and it works great. This unit was shipped with FedEx and the condition of the box was terrible. The driver said it had many stops and handling on the way. The box was not packed inside an outer box as Amazon does but at least it works.Update 05-16-2017: Still working fine. Used almost every day depending on weather.

It easily endured THOUSANDS OF HOURS of 45 amp charging before it no longer wanted to latch the auto transfer switch... And EVEN WITH THAT failing, the unit continues to function.So, I decided to call Aims today and see if I could get a replacement top control board for the unit.

Had this inverter for about 1 week , did not work out with my setup,Pros : easy to setup , adjustable battery charging , able to power my 1000W load without any issue till the battery lasted.Cons : Cant set the low battery voltage or high battery voltage, 10ms transfer time is slow, digital clocks reset , computer shut down, my bms had a higher low battery voltage setting so battery would shut down before it reached the voltage for the invert to switch to grid power, no remote monitoring capabilities

Looks beautiful, well made, hefty.Connected to a 48 vdc golf cart battery system on an Outback charge controller from 6 PV panels.Worked fine for just over a year, then threw sparks and smoke, tripped a fire and smoke alarm I luckily had in the same area.Manufacturer said "1 year warranty".Load was small, a refrigerator, and a 9000 btu split system inverter drive Air conditioner, well under 2000 watts.Would not buy this brand again.

The aims 48v 6000w Inverter has been running 3 freezers in my garage for 3 years now. Totally off grid.Remember that an inverter is limited by the batteries. I started off with 48v 100AH, then 200AH. When I added another bank to get 300AH I have had no problems.Also, your battery limits the max “discharge rate. Once exceeded it will shut down. This has nothing to do with the inverter.
