Allan,
Great idea. I had offered the option of switching to a two OutBack system but the price was too much. A second SW4024 is less dollars and a great inverter. I will contact you off list.

Dave, My best suggestion would be a second SW4024 as a charger (and also as a spare inverter). It would be bigger than most chargers, could be programmed much more accurately than a standard charger, and would be familiar to the client. If you need one contact me off list.

It's an existing off grid system with one Trace SW4024 (has a 120A battery charger). They are getting a larger generator (14kW) to run shop tools and speed up battery charging. I want to balance off the second leg of this new generators output with a battery charger that puts out anywhere from 80 to 100 Amps into the 24v battery bank. I could use two Iota 24 volt 40 Amp chargers for the 80 Amp max total. Other options?
