If you do not tell the mate its AC input is a generator wouldn't it 
possibly try to sell to the gen once the batteries are fully recharged? 
I am not sure what selling power to a generator would do. Ideally it 
would reverse the process... sucking C02 from the atmosphere and filling 
the fuel tank...
