How do you know the gen you looking at has enough watts to run the charger? I see no specs on the vectors stating required input.
Like the convertors in the RV they need specific wattage to run..
Like my current coachmen camper the convertor needs 550 watts input and charges at a 12 amnp rate max. 32 amp convertor.
The new convertors need upwards of 750 watts min ..
I have had Vector chargers for years and know their specs. 20 amps needs about 320w input (as seen on meter) so this 450w job should do it, even if we use VA which we should.
Anyway--never mind all that--is the gen itself any good?
