Hi Wrenches, If I may, I'd like to forward this from a Wrench formerly on the list, now semi-retired:
"I know this subject has been discussed, but I couldn't find the archive. I'd like to know pros and cons of using the Outback FM 60 or FM 80 as a charger - using a 7000 watt (6000 prime) generator as the power source. If I use a 6000w step down transformer, can I get all 6000 watts (3000 watts per leg) into one rectifier? If not, I guess I will need two FM 60 or FM 80's ( one for each leg of the generator). I'm not sure a 6000 watt step down transformer is still available. "I would like to have a parts list, and a source for the parts. A wiring diagram would also be helpful. Thanks, Eric" Bruce Erickson Mendocino Solar Service PO Box 1252 Mendocino, CA 95460 707-937-1701 _______________________________________________ List sponsored by Home Power magazine List Address: [email protected] Options & settings: http://lists.re-wrenches.org/options.cgi/re-wrenches-re-wrenches.org List-Archive: http://lists.re-wrenches.org/pipermail/re-wrenches-re-wrenches.org List rules & etiquette: www.re-wrenches.org/etiquette.htm Check out participant bios: www.members.re-wrenches.org
