![]() The system then automatically switches to the Normal Mode, 13.6 volts, to safely complete the charge. If the microprocessor senses the battery has been heavily discharged, it automatically selects the Boost Mode, increasing the charging voltage to 14.4 volts to bring the battery up to 90% of full charge as rapidly as possible. Depending on battery voltage and use, the microprocessor then selects one of three different charging voltages and one of four operating modes (Boost, Normal, Storage or Equalize) to ensure a safe rapid recharge. REVERSE BATTERY PROTECTION PREVENTS CHARGER DAMAGE IF BATTERY LEADS ARE ACCIDENTALLY REVERSED CHARGES UP TO THREE BATTERY BANKS BUILT-IN HIGH VOLTAGE PROTECTION BUILT-IN AMPMETER IS STANDARD QUIET SENSOR FAN ELECTRONIC SHORT CIRCUIT PROTECTION OVER TEMPERATURE SAFETY SHUTDOWN The Progressive Dynamics INTELI-POWER MARINE series of marine battery chargers incorporate a built-in microprocessor that constantly monitors battery voltage. All Inteli-Power chargers are designed to meet the stringent requirements of the Marine environment and are UL listed for safety. The Storage Mode and the Equalize Mode of operation ensures minimum battery gassing and water loss while preventing battery stratification and sulfation. It incorporates a microprocessor that constantly monitors battery voltage, then automatically selects one of three different charging voltages and one of four operating modes to ensure safe, rapid recharging cycles. The PD2030 is a 30-amp electronic battery charger capable of charging up to three separate banks of batteries at the same time. ![]() two in, one out)? Or two 15 amp in, and a 30 amp output? Two plugs into the two receptacles on the generator and then to the "Y", and the other goes from the "Y" to the female plug on the trailer 30 amp connection.30 Amp Electronic Marine Converter with Charger Wizard This converter has been discontinued and has been replaced by the 40A CONVERTER/CHARGER W/WIZARD MARINE LEAD ACID BATTERIES MODEL PD2140V. I am also aware of the possibility of using a Honda 2200i Companion generator to power the trailer with 30 amps.ĭan, any idea where I might source a Y pigtale with three 15 amp male plugs (i.e. ![]() I am thinking ahead to the situation where we have to use the generator to provide electricity. Each campground we have been to has both 30 and 50 amp service as well as a single 120 volt 20 amp plug for an extension cord. It seems I need to do more research to determine the power loads of the trailer. I don't know how much of the trailer that would provide power for however.Īnother concern is how long the generator would run on a tank of fuel with one, and both, outputs providing power. I do know there is a cable available for feeding one 15 amp generator output from an extension cord to a 30 amp input to the trailer. It seems that it would but could be problematic but would work. I was thinking about Dan's suggestion of having each 120v output from the generator connected to a Y which feeds to a single 30 amp input to the trailer but I wasn't sure if this would work. I don't know about the furnace and its fan. The TV, AC (I am not thinking of running that with the generator), microwave and the refrigerator are 120 volt. I don't know how much power the inverter that charges the battery would take as the house battery provides power to all the 12 volt items in the trailer, which are mainly the lights. I'll look at the power demands of refrigerator, the TV (24 inch) and the lights which are all LEDs. Thank you all for the input and suggestions. Run an extension cord from the other outlet to the outlet behind the Dometic refrigerator. In other words, you might just end up tripping the breaker on one of the outlets.Īn alternative would be to use a 50->15amp adapter to connect the trailer to one outlet. I don't know if that's a reasonable assumption. A Y would assume that when your RV is trying to use 2000 watts, that 1000 watts would be pulled from each receptacle on the generator. But if someone unplugged one of the plugs from the generator while it was running, the unplugged plug would be hot because the other plug would be powering it through the 'Y', posing risk of electrocution.Įven so, I'm not sure if the generator would manage the power demands in a predictable way. You could build a 'Y' with 2 15/20 amp plugs on one side and a 30 amp receptacle on the other. But without the companion, I'm not sure there's a way to combine the output of your two 15/20 amp outlets safely. The Honda EU2200i generator has a companion generator that does have a 30 amp receptacle so the 2 can be linked and all power from both routed through a 30 amp plug back to the RV. Sounds like you don't have a 30 amp receptacle on the generator.
