I thought I saw a comment on here awhile back that the power converters were not
the best things to use for charging the batteries.

We do a lot of dry camping and I typically run the Onan for awhile each day to
recharge the batteries, but it seems like I have to run it a really long time to
get the charges up like up to 4 hours, this seems pretty excessive.

Would it be better to hook up a regular battery charger and plug it into a
100vac outlet that the Onan powers and use that to charge the batteries?

Our power converter is a Progressive Dynamics PD9145A with the Charge Wizard on
it.

Thanks

Ray
