I have one customer that is currently using one of these with a 2500 watt Honda generator and he
reports an excellent increase in charging performance off an older Trace mod sine wave (2512SB)
inverter's charger. According to him, charging output went from the 35 to 40 amp range to 75 to 85
amps depending on battery SOC.

I would recommend these for folks as the performance gain in charging and associated reduced
generator run time easily is worth the $139.00 list price.
