Daryl:
I believe the Mate is the best option to start a generator and exercise
control over generator battery charging. Outboard units have proven to be
less intelligent about charging functions. I recommend you work out your
problems with the Outback and use the Mate.
What kind of problems have you been having?

Can anyone point me in the direction of a good, autonomous generator auto
start. We have an off grid system with a substantial array (8 kw) and
using a dual OutBack 3648 PP, but we have not had good luck with generator
auto start using the relays and Mate within the OutBack equipment. I would
like to try something whose function would be to sense battery voltage and
start based on adjustable settings. Any favorites out there? The customer
has a new Onan 12 kw gennie.
Thanks,
Daryl
