I'll toss in here that I didn't see any "protective shutdown" on the S when charging at Voltages up to 281V, though under load it dropped to low 270's. I only had it charge like this for a few minutes before I shut charging down for my own peace of mind.

Thanks for the video... It's probably not the > 250V -- the chargers are actually rated for up to 265V. It's likely either the crazy voltage fluctuations, but my guess is actually that the car doesn't like the frequency fluctuations. My home's UPS's don't like the cheap gensets and refuse to charge at all, and it's because the frequency variation is too wide based on these generators' governors.
I find it odd that voltage increases under load in your test, generally it drops, and especially when it comes to the cheaper components used on these generators.
What's also odd is that your car shows it is charging at 1-2 amps over the target.
