We did some testing of generator-charger/inverter compatability today here in
Georgetown
First let me thank Rich Tanner on "Feral Cat" and Don Wilson on "Next Exit"
Would you or Lee pass these results on to the membership via internet or
newsletter?
With the Freedom 2000 set at max 5amp A/C the charger put out 30A at 13-14V, at
max 10amp A/C the dc output was 60A at 13-14V, and at 15amp A/C the dc output
was 90A at 13-14V. The generator seemed well within its normal operating range
at all these loads but we did not have an A/C ammeter to measure actual
generator output. The battery bank consisted of four 6V lead acid batteries with
428AH
With a Heart 1800 charging current was 60A into a battery bank consisting of six
T105lead acid batteries with 630AH
With a Freedom 1000 charging current was 50A into a battery bank of two 4D gel
batteries with a total of 360AH

I believe that these figures were with the Honda 2000. I've asked Chet to
confirm that!
