Out in the outback with OutBack [RE-wrenches]

[Geoff Greenfield]

With the availability and service network for AC gennys we typically
recommend this route.  Our "kluge" for a job that fell into this "outback
gap" has a brand X 5548 running just as a charger off the genny.  We would
have gone with some lower priced chargers but it was inspected and we needed
the UL and conduit connections that came with the Xantrex.  Pricey too, but
we needed the capacity and also wanted to stay out of the homebrew dept on
this job.

Chris et al at Outback:  "AC In 1 and 2 please!!!!"
