Hi Wal, I am talking to a company in Ontario Canada about a charging solution. I run an essential CPAP for life threatening APNEA so ... cruising with an assured charging solution is imperative in order to run while on the hook for a week.
Yes, I have bought a used windmill and I am working out solar.... however ... This engine charging solution turns my Yanmar into a genset with an alternator regulator that can automatically change/control the alternator loading from a 35A to 180A so that charging is quicker and does not coke up the engine when on the hook, yet it can can downsize the alternator load on the engine when motoring. This involves changing the belt and pulley, alternator, 2 regulator black boxes, sensors and control panel.
