On the website it shows you can plug into a standard outlet. so can i plug this into my generator? and have lights running of batterys?

This unit is designed to recharge your trolling motor batteries from the DC alternator built on to your boat motor while your motor is running. This unit is not a shore power unit nor is it one that charges batteries from a 110 outlet.

No. This charger goes onto your cranking battery and charges your accessory batteries. There is no household plug outlet.

This unit only charges two extra batteries. It takes the voltage from the motor's generator and charges the two extra batteries. It is usually used when one has a trolling motor which has two batteries . It will not light a light.

It does plug into a standard outlet. It will work. It could have trouble keeping up with the lights depending on current draw from the lights.

Not sure. I wired mine to the engine so while the engine is running, it charges the trolling motor batteries. I have an on board charger that plugs in to charge them from AC/110. Not this one though.

I have never grounded my generator. It is grounded to the frame by the manufacturer. Unless your local municipality requires it I don't see the need. HOWEVER, if you set it up improperly by choosing not to connect it to the house by use of a transfer switch or other isolating equipment you can cause a major problem and fire at the generator. What I am saying is never back feed it into the house, you are just looking for problems.Having said all that it can be grounded by driving a grounding stake deep into the ground and attaching it to the grounding lug on the generator's frame.

A generator is not designed to permanently replace utility power. Although you can run it for extended periods of time, it should not be "always on" as a replacement for power from the grid.

You would have to plug it into a back up battery or cord connected to a generator as you would with any other type of electrical plug device.

It can be purchased with or without the 100W solar panel. If you do not have any experience with electrical systems, buy it with the panel. It has a unique connector to the generator. No, it doesn't have a dc outlet.

Todd,I am assuming that by hooking up your generator, you mean through a battery charger. If that is the case, I have not had any issues charging my batteries on cloudy days with a battery charger.

It can be plugged into a standard outlet. Mounting the lamp is also very simple. I am exteremly satisfied with the pair of fixutes I purchased.

Yes, you can plug the plant light into a standard American 120V outlet. Some, like yourself, call the 120V outlet a 110V outlet.

I used a regular outlet on a 20 amp braker and it worked fine, didn't trip once. I don't know about using a generator but I think that would work also

I use it with my generator, it kept blowing my GFI breaker, I put a regular 110 outlet in and it runs my trailer with both AC, I have used it at a few parks without a GFI breaker outlet, so if you have. GFI breaker in the circuit you need to replace it with a regular 110v outlet and it should work just fine. Hope this helps??

Yes, it can plug into a standard outlet. It is a good fan and it was a great investment.

No, you plug it in - Regular 110/120VNo place for batteries - supposed to draw minimal power (equivalent to 30W light bulb??). Unit works great!

You can use a 10000 watt generator if you want, but you can only run 1875 watts through the switch. Think of it as an extension cord, you can plug in a light duty cord into any size generator, put you can only pull a limited amount of power through the cord- it's rated wattage.

We just plug it into an outlet. It has never blown a fuse doing it that way. We've never used a generator.

This is designed to charge your battery or batteries, not to directly power lights and fans and whatnot. I have mine set up in conjunction with a solar panel grid. Each runs through a charge controller of its own and into a distribution block before going into the battery bank. To run lights or AC powered items you will need to either use a power inverter connected to your batteries. This is a great little turbine but its not designed to power something all by itself. Since wind speeds vary its power output will vary. you will want a charge controller to cut off power flow if the winds blow too hard or if your batteries are fully charged to prevent overcharging. think of the wiring like this: turbine&gt;charge controller&gt;battery bank&gt;power inverter&gt;lights and fans. I hope that helps. If not search YouTube for a guy named LDSprepper. I wired my solar and battery bank like his but I added the turbines for cloudy days.

If the generator has an outlet that you can plug the battery charging station into, yes.

Yes, there is a small transformer that plugs into a regular outlet. I have installed the lights at a computer work station and they work great.
