I did a few wiring and voltage checks this morning
when the switch is in the 120 volt mode only the 30 amp RV outlet and the 20 amp 120 outlet have power
the twist lock does not have any power in the 120v mode
with the switch in the 240 volt mode ONLY the twist lock has power ( 240 volts )
the RV outlet and 20amp outlet are NOT powered
under a no load cold start I measued 123 volts and 246 volts
with the RV plugged in and the converter charging the batteries I measured 126 volts
I did not do an AC amps check, NOR did i check the charge rate at the batteries
and i forgot to check it when I was using the microwave ( to busy thinking about baked potatoes )
here is picture of buisness end of the generator head
the gray unit in the lower left quadrant is the voltage regulator
the number of wires seems to indicate a quality unit with voltage and possibly current control
leaving the govenor to control only the frequency
