How to deal with uneven load on 240 volt generator?

That's true on my setup also. However most of my inverter loads are minimal or only on a short time ie, a hair dryer or microwave. You still need to balance your non inverter 120v loads on the 240v panel upstream the inverter panel as best you can.  The 240v loads if any don't require balancing. They use both phases.

The only 120 volt load that doesn't go through the inverter is the water heater.  I have a 120 volt connection back to an enclosed trailer where I want the 120 volt lights to work on inverted, but I also have a roof top A/C on the trailer.

No way around it, when hamstrung with an inverter.

Accept that there will be some imbalance, switch it to 240 and reverse course if it causes trouble?

Or, leave it alone and get a step up transformer for that one load?

Transformers are relatively inexpensive, vs some of the other mentioned solutions?

happy coaching!
