I want to start off by saying - yes i have searched and yes there is a ton, but really there is not a conversation about it.
Let me explain. I own a 2011 Coachman Catalina 21 BH and we love it, just the right size and all the perks we have need so far. The other day i had a guy walk over to me and start to ask me questions about my Gennies (Set of Honda EU2000i's linked together so i can run the A/C is needed)
Where am i going with this - I am not an Electrician so I don't understand much about watts and amps.
Some of the questions that came up -
Do i need 1 or both to charge up my batteries so i can run over night? I don't know....
I have 2 - 6Volt batteries and thats all. I have seem them sit at 13.0 and as low as 11.9 I have no clue what is what is and what is not fully charges - I just go off the little push button gauge...
also I have a Solar Panel (two Boulder 30's from Goal Zero 60 Watts with a Guardian 12 V converter... I throw it on to keep things topped off when running the Generator is pointless. not using the A/C, TV, Fan or Sat Dish.
I am really new at this and wanted to strike up a conversation.
Please POST your thoughts....
You would only need one generator running to charge your batteries.
A set up of 6v batteries is the way to go. What you're looking at is the actual voltage of the batteries while hooked up to produce 12v power.) Voltage Explanation
