Generator Charge Time?

For those that boon-dock and charge with a generator ...

Estimate the re-charge time on a Honda 2200i (or a 2000i, if you have that) for a single Deker 220a AGM battery after fifty percent discharge.

Nothing else running - just a recharge of the battery... Thx

Just trying to guestimate how long to plan for charging in a no HU situation.

And, how much gas to carry ...

We camp at higher elevations, if that matters ... but probably not much difference in charge time.
  • Charging with the genset goes through the converter or inverter/charger depending on system.
    Look at your converter, find the charge amperage for your unit. You could get more info from others by posting the converter or inverter/charger make and model.
    It may pay to upgrade the converter!
