BC is not in the PNW of course, but if you ever camp here in a provincial park in February, with your furnace eating over 100AH a day, plus whatever else you are doing 12v-wise, you would have to.
BC Campground rules say gen hours from 9-11 am or else wait till after dark 6-8pm. So if you want to get your 50-80 or 50-90 done in that two hours 9-11 when you can see what you are doing, you will need a high amp recharge and a big enough generator to run that high an amp charger.
Or else forget it, and stay home! :)
Wow!! 100A/H in a day!
I think you need a new furnace. In weather comparable to Vancouver BC I use 1/3 that.
There is definitely a limit to how fast you can charge FLA batteries without damaging them. 30% of C20 is going to boil your batteries and require close attention to electrolyte level. Ignore that and you will destroy your batteries.
