Charging From AC Power

Charging From AC Power

When recharging from AC power, use a good quality charger or RV converter that meets the requirements outlined in “Charging System Requirements” on page C–1.

Do not use chargers intended for occasional recharging of automotive starting batteries. These chargers are not intended for continuous use.

Charging From Alternative Energy Sources

You can also charge your batteries from alternative energy sources such as solar panels, wind, or hydro systems. Make sure you use the appropriate battery charge controller for your particular energy source.

CAUTION

Never operate the inverter directly from an energy source such as a solar panel. The inverter must be connected to a battery or a well-regulated, high-current DC power supply to work properly.
