hi bruce,
william miller has one he is going to send me.
the most this unit ever sells is 1300 watts so the 2 kW limit isn't a problem,
but because it is sealed the heat seems to kill off the internal fan in about
18 months... and it is a pain to replace.
i thought outback would sell me one but the old days when they would
accommodate a strange request are long gone.
thanks for the email and reminder about the control card's limits.

Hi Todd,
From my recollection changing the case might help but the logic
will still hold it to 2kVA unless you change the control board as well. The
only reason I can think of for short fan life would be high temperatures
requiring long and frequent fan run times. Maybe someone has a display case
unit you could get the vented top from?

Subject: [RE-wrenches] weird request
i have a weird request...
i have customer with a sealed GFX-2024 who has long complained about the
internal fan's short (1.5 year) service life. i am thinking about changing this
to a vented unit but would need to buy a different top half of the fx case...
one with a hole for the fan's air intake and the exhaust air slots on the top
and bottom between the case's fins.
outback does not sell just the top half of the FX/FXR case. do any wrenches
have old junk inverters they would consider parting out the top half of the
case?
if so, please contact me off list.
thanks,
todd
