24v and 48 volt generators.

[Marco]

Hello all,

I was wondering what people do with their 24v and 48v generators?

Comercially available inverters only seem to come in 12v flavours.

So are the 24v and 48v bulders using homebrew inverters? Or are they

running things on the raw dc battery voltage.

Many thanks,

Marco Miglionico.

Marco;

Commercially available inverters only seem to come in 12v flavours.

This is simply not true. Many commercial units are built for both 24 and 48 volt sources. You must be only looking at cheap stuff.

Outback and Xantrex [Trace] make them for sure.

Cheers.

this is not a post hijack but,tomw several weeks ago i attempted to post a small video but was unable to . you were kind enough to make it work for me . can you describe what you did to a novice computor user, if not here, then please email me at yahoo.

Exeltech also has inverters from 12volts to 108 volts input DC and all voltages in between

Thanks for the info. Indeed I was looking at

(very) cheap inverters sub 300W at around £30.00.

I'm hoping Tom and Don will have thier verter done before I get my genny finished. I would like to switch 48(or even higher)but inverters and CCs get quite up there in price.
