Portable Generators
#9

I had to set my Victron Quattro to accept only 15 amp shore power. When I did that, the little Honda runs well. it will supplement the solar and allow me to run 2 ac's for three days as an assist to the batteries. I bought one of those extended run kits with a 3 gallon portable boat fuel tank. I have to fill it at the end of the day but can get maybe 10 hours run time at full load to the three gallons. I wouldn't use the Honda as primary battery charging since I have the big generator but it's good to know it will work and keep all my creature comforts going. Of course I can change the shore power input back to 50 for either main generator or shore power plug in. I will add another 455watt solar panel on its own controller this week. It should realistically give me a conservative 300 watts added power. That's the best I can do but will need to remove the TV antenna off the rear roof to fit this panel in.
