[RE-wrenches] Small genset 2 wire start?

[Darryl Thayer]

Maybe the Home Depot 8 kW Kohler would meet the ticket.  It has 2 wire
start, propane version, can be configured for 120 volt OR 120-240 volt
output, has an optional "carb heater" run synthetic oil for cold weather
starting.  It is not rated Prime power, but for an off grid customer, with
solar and batteries Prime power is not a consideration.  It has a 12 volt
battery, that can be charged from a 24 to 12 converter or a 48 to 12 if one
can be found.  I set the 12 volt float voltage at 13.6 and the batteries
seem to last for years. charging the battery supplies control and
monitoring function.
