WFCO makes for a GREAT power supply when it is denuded of it's case and air is passed across those vertical ceramic resistors. But like it or not, the WFCO ain't the Rolls & Surrette of power supplies. Lambda is...
When a generator is CAUSING the problem, the cause must be fixed, not the effect.
My system did not have flickering lamp effects, merely too much champipple on the output. I do not want the DC to DC boosters, buckers and inverter subjected to ripple. Check out the LIFELINE BATTERY PDF manual and read Concorde's opinion about PULSE CHARGING and ripple. Ripple does a great job softening cured plate paste. I might have a tad of experience in that area...
Batteries offer a specific farad capacitance which cannot address frequencies above a certain level. Ripple and any other frequency anomaly needs to be TUNED OUT with selected capacitance.
