Hi Group,
I'm kicking myself for even shipping the 48v Lester chargers up to Canada but done is done. Can they even be used for charging Lithium Batteries? If not I'll use them for the coach RV batteries.
Otherwise I've been reviewing inverter/chargers and have found that 12v inverter/chargers output more amps than 48v inverter/chargers. Why is that? Also if that is the case should I be looking at a 12v high output charger?
Each of my motors produces 80amps for a combined output of 160amps full throttle. It would be nice to source out the components so that I can always return the same 160amps back to the bank. So if I'm thinking correctly then I get a large stand alone inverter and run multiple 48v chargers back into the system.
Everyone seems to go for the elcon 1500 charger but at the outset I don't know for sure if it charges at more than 20amps which would take forever to charge a large bank.
The safe limp home speed well it's more like the never going home speed I'm after. I do concurr though the DC generator is the way to go but prohibitively expensive. So AC generator(s) and a large output charger is what I'm after.
