Wrenches,
Generators have become a moving target, especially for off grid
applications. Most are set up for grid backup, and I'm assuming that
many may simply be unavailable, given that half of most everything else
is on back-order with no expected delivery date... I'm seldom asked to
recommend a generator these days, but I am today, so I'm requesting
recommendations from other off grid-savvy Wrenches, please.
I'm working with an older (2014?) existing dual Outback VFX3524 system
which will be upgraded to dual VFXR-3648s to work with a 16kW Blue Ion
LiFP battery bank; 4kW array with upgrade infrastructure in place to
later add 2kW more if needed. Once the upgrade is done I expect
relatively little generator runtime. The customer would prefer LP fuel
and 2-wire start (for remote control). Pretty much any well-regarded
model in the 8-14 kW @240 VAC rating range could work.
Thank you for your suggestions!
Allan
