Hi william

Yes I’ve done it many times without issues

Friends:

One of my clients has one VFXR3648A inverter connected to 8 L16 batteries. We upgraded their generator to 12 kW. 

One leg of the generator is unloaded and the batteries can accept twice the charge current one FX can provide. It seems another inverter is called for. 

I have several functional VFXR3648 inverters on the shelf. I know I can not mix versions of the inverter in the hub. Could I connect a VFX3648 to the unused generator leg and battery bank but not the hub as a ‘dumb’ charger?  I would plug in a Mate just long enough to verify settings. 

Has anyone tried this?  Thanks in advance for any advice.
