Another B+ update... Trail Lite 213, Chevy 6.0: 11.x hand calculated at 65 MPH. Preliminary numbers suggest 12.x at 60, and 13.x at 55. Those latter two come from a monitor I installed.
if it does gal/hr, what does it read idling in neutral? onan says .5-,7 gph.
Burl, it does gph. That's an interesting question. I'll try to remember to check next time I run it. On our recent dry camping trip, I measured the alternator as putting roughly twice the charge to the house battery as the generator powering the converter-charger. Testing done one right after the other, but only for a minute or less, so I don't know if the alternator would keep it up or not.
