You have had many good suggestions but note you are on border line power, at 2200 teet your power is down 10% note gen's are 80% of name plate, and you are asking for 7.2 kW from a Genny that with atmospheric correction is 7.2 kW On Fri, Oct 27, 2023, 8:27 AM Amos Post via RE-wrenches <

Can anyone explain why changing to Support mode on the generator input boosts battery charging amps? The Radian manual explanation for Support mode gives no clue about this "fix". It only states that Support mode will allow batteries to provide extra power to loads if demand exceeds max. gen

Hello wrenches, We just installed an GS8048a Radian build with Mate 3SL controller (no Optics). We are having some with charging from the generator, as the generator charging seems to be limited to about 4500Watts +/- (20amps AC) when charging through the Radian. It is a Kohler 8.5RES
