charging batteries with Honda2000
Is charging the batteries thru the converter faster in eco-mode or out of eco-mode with my honda genny?

Hi sign man
I use my Honda Generator to charge batteries a lot as I am often boondocking out west somewhere.
I run the Gen on Eco mode exclusively to charge through the TT charging system. That is a much better charger then my backup 10 amp cheap charger. It takes 2-3 hours to top off the batteries when I use lots of electric during a day. Usually a charge will last 2-3 days of low use.
If I am using minimal electric (really nice weather in the summer) about an hour of charging is often enough every day or every other day.
I have never seen a reason NOT use the Eco Mode, plus it is quieter. Something appreciated by me and my neighbors.
