BUT ABOUT EVERY 20 SECONDS, JUST WHEN YOU WOULD EXPECT THE AC-IN TO GET PICKED UP BY THE INVERTER THERE WOULD BE AN AUDIBLE CLICK, THE VOLTAGE WOULD SUDDENLY DROP TO ABOUT 110V, THEN IMMEDIATELY RECOVER TO ~121V. AT NO TIME DID THE AC-IN GET PICKED UP.


The drop in voltage usually indicates that the inverter is trying to pick up the generator. Are you certain that the inverter is not grabbing the generator's AC input, slowing the rpms and then letting it go of the gen feed because the frequency is knocked out of spec?
