Walt, Probably about the best bet is another set of inverters just as chargers. Look at the Magnu 4448AE inverters, they have a great charger that draws less incoming ac that any of the other chargers that I have tried. Seems that 2 of the 4448 inverters will each put about 60 amps DC into a batter

Walt, It seems to me that the most obvious solution would be to use more Outback inverters, with one or more serving solely as inverter(s) and the other(s) solely as charger(s). Then you get the benefits of sophisticated charging algorithm, isolation for power quality, compatibility on the Flexn

HI Walt, Have you looked into the IBE industrial battery chargers? They will be large enough and robust enough to handle the charging. I'm not sure if they are the best for constant charging however. But maybe that isn't a large problem given the condition of the electric grid? Jay Pe

Hello all, We have an application in Haiti (and some African countries as well) where we have inverter /battery systems on a lousy (very lousy) grids. The grid is good enough to charge batteries, but not sufficient for sensitive electronic loads. Therefore, the systems we are using are t
