I have one EG4 standard server rack 48V batt paired with the EG4 3000W inverter for my skoolie build and with 2 110V 12k mini splits I'm already seeing this set up will not be enough without significant power restraints when both minisplits are running or add another inverter/battery.
The mini itself runs about 1.2kw on the highest cool setting and less than half that typically. And that's fine if fully charged but as I'm seeing today when I'm waiting to recharge depleted batteries and it's an overcast day it's a long hot wait. So yea I need backup more than total power but I need more total power too.
Would you spend another $749 on another 3000W inverter and run it in parallel or get the 6.5kw big brother and maybe sell the 3000W inverter?
