We are not really advocating doing this. It can cause nightmares in
service and support.
If one really knows what they are doing, it can be done (and has been
done) but mere mortals should not
be attempting to do this.
I would get a real AC to DC charger. If IOTA isn't good enough, maybe
Magnum's is
ready or did I hear that the big "X" has had one or two of these for
quite some time now ?
Power factor corrected even ?

The midnite classic 250 can do this fine. Rectify the generator 110vac
to around 165vdc and feed into classic. Use Aux functions to start and
stop generator based on battery voltage or SOC %.

Dear people:
I'm looking for an easy solution for battery charging off a
generator, but trying to save the cost of a big inverter. I have
a customer who needs to charge a 48V battery bank with a 30A
charger off of a generator--but I need it to sense when the
battery voltage is low, so that the "device" (charger) will
automatically turn on the (2-wire start) generator and charge the
batteries. I am trying to avoid the cost of, say, a Magnum
4448PAE with its AGS module, and just get a voltage sensitive
battery charger. Is this doable? Any ideas?
THANKS.
