I have one for experiments

Yes - it's a low priority task that keeps emerging. Every time I see a generator I stop and take in the specs. Must be an EV convertor's syndrome. Trouble is the extra weight takes its toll.seligtype3 wrote:Has anyone considered carrying around a little 2000W Honda generator for emergency roadside assist and/or keeping the pack topped up while you stop for lunch?
I'm not familiar with sag, ripple etc and how this effects charging?Actually that would work well as the sag from the gen set would reduce as the cell voltage increases when the cell nears 90% full.
So using the peaks of the ripple from the Genset output through a Single phase rectifier you may reach 400V.
