Charging battery with Honda 2000

Will my Honda 2000 charge the battery as fast on eco as it will fill throttle?
  • Your onboard converter will "demand" as many amps as it needs to charge your batteries. Should you be on eco mode it may ramp up the Honda if the converter pulls a lot of amps initially. Once the battery begins to get a decent charge it will spool down again so no harm done.
  • "Fast" charging during the bulk phase. The absorption phase is a different animal. Your batteries accept lower and lower amps. It's NOT what you offer but what the batteries will accept. Read some basic RV battery/electrical tutorials.
  • Assuming you are plugging your RV power plug into the generator, and charging via the onboard converter (or inverter), it shouldn't matter if you're on eco or full throttle.
