Default Powerboost wattage

Does anyone know if the rated wattage (7.2) is for the starting wattage or running wattage?

Both, you can pull 30A at 240V continuously. There are a few videos showing charging of EVs like teslas where they draw that load continuously.

yep. and when your pulling power, the engine will kick on to charge the 48V lithium ion battery under the seat. now the non powerboost f150s with the 2.0 KW pro power, the engine has to be running at all times to use the generator
