Hi Kirk
One trick I learned from my generator guy is to hook up the remote start to the
manual on position
This bypass's the auto position and the extra load on the battery
Best I can tell only difference on the Koehler anyway is how fast it starts. On
auto right now
On manual a few seconds
Kirk,
I have 4 Eco-gens out there and working fine. I'm not sure about the
phantom load but it does include the battery charging. My guess is that after
the battery recovers from starting, the load probably drops to minimal. There
is an hour meter in the menu under state which is many
Hi Kirk,
The Ecogens we have out there (3) have been working great, without
needing service. We do leave the switch set to manual which I don't
believe has a phantom load. It so, it is very minimal as we haven't had
customers complaining of lack of power. I continue to recommend them
for small
Jay –
I’ve done this before with the Kohler RES series to eliminate the phantom in
auto-mode, BUT stressing to all that the generator could start automatically
without notice – especially to the generator tech. As always, best to
disconnect the starting battery when servicing.

I'm looking for one also to purchase or rent.

Thanks boB and Jay. I'm familiar with the GSM, just didn't remember
it was for the Power Station.
Anyone one know where I might find an ALM or GSM?

This looks like the third year I'm going to miss SF - summers are just to busy
and short. Kirk had already let me know he had a few so I signed on with him.
If that doesn't work out I'll check back with you. Thanks for the note.

I believe that the phantom load is 8 watts continuous if run off of AC. I have
not tested this myself, as I had inverter AC at the Bennie hookup location and
I'm hard wired so can't test it with a
