Ebay item 130617332985 a Nieoff generator 24V @ 570 amps new. Looks to be military. Can't imagine all the things you could power while under way with this. Can't imagine how much engine power it takes to run it. Thought someone might be interested.
At 28v x 570amps = 15,960 watts. At 85% efficiency, that's like powering 18,423 watts. Divide by 750 watts (1 horsepower) that gives 25 horsepower at full output. Could power the entire coach that way. Good Luck, TomC
Wow, 13, 680 watts. Looks like they have a pulley (multigroove) for a belt drive; that's gonna be one big ole fat hairy belt!
A 24v alternator running puts out 28v x 570 amps = 15,960 watts. If it were putting out 24v, it wouldn't charge the batteries. Good Luck, TomC
