[NSRCA-discussion] IOTA 55 Powersupply - not holding voltage.

[Vicente "Vince" Bortone]

I wonder if this one is better:

Has anyone had any problems with these? Mine when drawing from 2 chargers and only 19 amps or so on the supply output, drops output voltage to 12-11.9 vdc. My chargers dont like this. 
Curious what might be going on with it. 
Tks

Looks suspiciously like the Honda in many details...hmmm. 
You can probably get an extended warranty with it for not too much.

Went by HD at lunch. No luck. Doesn't look like they ever carried that model at the store where I went. Drats. 

I went online at the HD website and found this: 

http://www.homedepot.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?storeId=10051&langId=-1&catalogId=10053&productId=100669124 

Only 26lbs. Price includes shipping. I ordered one. I figure 750w AC should run my chargers and a fan. :-)  I ran the battery in my van down once, it still started but the alternator quickly went out trying to charge a nearly dead battery. Don't want that to happen again. I have a 20 amp 12v power supply, but think I will get a 30 or 40 amp RV converter to go with this generator. 

I'll let you know how it turns out.

Well that would make sense--they speed up to produce power as it's needed--and a heating element is on and off to maintain an average temp.  Certainly worth looking at.  I like the little Honda as it's fairly easy on my wimpy back and quiet enough if you run an extension from having it at the front of the vehicle to the back--you are hardly aware it's there at full power.  There's enough power to run two chargers and a small fan for motor cooling on hot days...  I need to get a little oscillating fan--cool the motor--cool the pilot--cool the motor.... 
  
BTW, I happened to be in the Muncie area touring some glass and fiberglass manufacturing facilities--(HOT)--but got a chance to stop by the AMA Headquarters after hours.  What a great place to fly! 
A few of the early bird CA guys were there practicing for the Aerobatic Nationals next week--impressive from what we were able to see...  Got me thinking a little about the bigger stuff--but I'm fighting it...

One guy on the RV forum bought one at that price. The only complaint he had about it was the eco mode causing it to speed up and slow down constantly while his coffee maker was on. :-)  I think it is worth looking at, and I plan to go down to HD today to see if they have one.

I was reading on RCU jet forum that Home Depot is selling the Honeywell 2000i generator for $299 in store price. Has anyone had experience with this generator? You will not find this price at Home Depot online. It is a in store sale price only. 
Thanks
