Looking for battery charger advice.
Hi guys,
This is not really for an RV so to speak (going in the van), but I am looking at purchasing a small, inexpensive inverter generator to charge a 60-120 A battery bank. That is all the gen will be used for.
I really want a Progressive Dynamics with the charge wizard, but the smallest they have is 45 amp, which pulls 725 watts, which would mean that I would need to get something like the Honda 2000i to run it, which at a grand is over kill for me and this application.
So, any advice on a good charger that will pull around 400-500 watts?
Advice on a cheap inverter generator welcomed as well.
I really don't want to spend a lot on this set up, but I am not seeing too many options that are reliable, etc...
Thanks in advance.
