If you are live in a country where the grid (and home appliances) voltage is 100V AC (like me who live in Japan), among these two you should choose the old one which able to program the output voltage to 100V rather than the new one which does not able to do that.

Can i use solid wire to connect to the Multiplus 2x120 . My 50 amp coach uses solid 3 wire cable.

Hi. These are not 3000W, but 3000VA, which is 2400W.

That's a good comparison between the 2 Victron models, but there's a lot more on the market to choose from with different features and specs depending on your needs. For instance, we live full time in an older motorhome that doesn't have much bay space available, so wanted a wall mounted unit. We chose an all-in one 48v, 5, 000w inverter/100a charger/charge controller from Sungold Power. This inverter is perfect for our older MH that came from the factory as a 30 amp but has been converted to a 50a model. We can power both A/C units (one is a mini split), our microwave and other appliances all at the same time. We have been living off-grid for the last 2 years, but if we ever had to plug into a 50a power pole, we could do so, as we disabled the second leg of our 50amp cord so that we only get 50a to both sides of our circuit breaker box, (not 50a per side), which is more than adequate for our needs. We chose this particular unit because it supports 500v of solar input and our 4, 400w, 400voc array giving us sufficient headroom for cloud effect events and such. It has the same 99% charging/95% inverter efficiency as the Victron yet costs much less, especially when you consider it includes a 48v charge controller too. Different strokes for different folks.
