I just purchased an AC200 to be used for emergency service at home and to augment the existing batteries on coastal cruising trips on our Pearson 35. The generator would be primarily used on extended sailing passages which rely on prolonged auto-pilot use. I was wondering what the best way to use this new generator. Use the inverter to power an AC battery charger? Use the DC output on a dedicated Autopilot circuit? This would need a selector switch to change between the on board bank and the generator. I don't think too many other options would be needed. The engine would easily take care of everything else as it does now. My primary concern is the autopilot.
We have engine driven refrigeration and engine heated domestic hot water.
