I like the options that a variety of power sources present.Came home last night to no power fortunately the battery backup was doing its job and the remote garage door opener worked as it should so we could get into the house.
I have only a few critical circuits on the battery backup to maximize battery life. Went into power house and started up the MEP-952b 28 volt generator then threw 1 breaker to energize the entire house so we could take our showers. Everything worked as it should while sipping fuel at the rate of 3~4 hours per gallon.
Shut the generator down when we went to bed and used the battery backup for selected lights in the house.
The beauty of a diesel generator is that regardless of how long it sets it always starts the same.
Still struggling to get the AGS to monitor battery voltage and start/stop the generator as needed.

Diesel gens + batteries were common long before "hybrid" became a thing. Many consumers (fine by me) don't want to mess with that scale of conventional battery - but in a custom system like yours 90, modern lighting and electronics can run a really long time on a battery bank, w/o firing the gen. <<< Me like that approach.....
On the AGS, is it hardware interface issues or software giving you attitude 90 ?
