First, I want to say how helpful this forum and this topic have been. An amazing amount of valuable info.
I am buying a 33’ Fleetwood Wilderness this weekend. First upgrade will most likely be a PD9160 and 3 new Group 24 batteries (if I can fit them). I will be putting this trailer on my off-grid property in Belize (Central America). I plan on using one of the aforementioned Chinese generators to charge my batteries for a few hours every couple of days (hopefully the upgraded converter will keep the charging time down to a minimum).
My question is, will a 3000w generator be able to handle a 60amp charger along with a couple of other relatively small loads (no a/c)? Will I be able to really take full advantage of this converter’s capabilities with my relatively light generator and (presumably) 30 amp power cord?
