Factory Installed Generator

[jpdewitt]

My 2012 R29 S has a post factory installed generator. That installation originally only powered Line 2 (Air Conditioners) and not Line 1 (House 120 V). I have since had it reconfigured wiring to power Line 1.

My question: Did the factory installed generators for this model also provide power to the battery charger/inverter to charge batteries when running the generator?

On our 2015 R31, the factory installed generator powers the loads on both AC Line 1 and Line 2.
You still have to manage your loads, as the 5KW generator will not simultaneously handle both air conditioning systems, the battery charger in bulk charge, and the water heater, for example. You also want to bring on both air systems at different times, as the start-up is what requires the most power.
