    The wiring inside the generator needs to be changed, not just re-connected, to get more power capacity. Easier to bu a new unit.

    I am curious as to how/why you would think this is even possible. Especially to that level.
    You are literally wanting to triple the output of a generator? It just cannot be done.
    You'd need a bigger generator head, larger wiring and a bigger engine; so to summarize, you need a bigger generator.

    What about an audio amplifier? Isn't that what it does? Might be a dumb question but I solve issues like this a lot by doing things differently than has been done before.

    Works great for sound but not for power output from a generator.

    And let's get back to basic physics... power is power. A 900 watt generator will not, can not generate more power than it is designed for...
    Small increases may be possible, a few percent maybe, but 300%..? never.
    If you could figure this out Jim, your picture would be in the dictionary under genius
