Hi smk,
The Magnum 3000 inverter/charger will do 125 amps @ 12 volts from a 15 amp shore power source. This is from observation of the remote they sell.
As I wished to limit charging to no more than 108 amps I "dialed down" the input from 15 to 13 amps. A Honda 2k (1600 watts) should be able to do that, at sea level.

Hi,
15 amps will do 125 amps @ 12 volts on charger with a power factor of 1.
More likely 70% to 90% efficient.
