Yamaha 2400 generator's on-board 12V charger
Not related to charging my TT batteries, but a question about the on-board 12V charging system in my Yamaha 2400 inverter generator. The other weekend I needed to fire up my new-to-me riding lawnmowe...

Smaller generator ROB the alternator's (Generator's) FIELD VOLTAGE which usually 18-volts on these micro gens. Voltage is sent to the external plugs. Depending on the generator current is limited to around four to eight amperes.
Field voltage is what is utilized in the rotating "rotor". The excitation is direct current. My Kubota/Kato uses 36 volts at 2 amperes in the primary exciter which is a rectified generator winding in itself. 20 amperes @ 110VDC feeds the main rotor winding.
