I have two APC Smart UPS that have a config item for running on a generator. With it enabled they don't constantly switch.
OMG, I spent 30 minutes skimming that. I actually found the section on lighting and color rendition fascinating, but that's OT here. It repeats itself - what I think has happened is that as new models come out he re-edits his old spiel for the differences and then just appends it to the bottom. So, after all the discussion the EU6500is, for instance, there's then a section on the newer EU7000is.
I just bought a EU7000is for home backup. It's interesting to read how even the older EU6500is could handle 7680 watts, but Honda had to de-rate it for North America due to GFCI requirements and home standby power regulations. I wish I could summarize the whys, but I can't - it has to do with floating versus bonded neutral/ground. How much draw did you attempt from your EU6500is when charging your Model S? I saw someone here say it was the equivalent of 17MPG. The newer EU7000is is supposed to get better fuel usage (being fuel injected instead of carburetored), so perhaps that gets close to 20mpg.
As for miimura's reference to double-conversion (also known as dual online) UPS systems to clean up power, that's what I used to do with my previous smaller Coleman generator. Most UPS's won't work with contractor grade generators, but my Tripp-Lite "smart online" UPS system did. And since it's always taking AC power to DC and then reconstituting AC from DC, it doesn't matter what the power coming in looks like (within reason, of course). I had my TV/Computer stuff plugged in this way. 110 volt systems can be had for under $300 on ebay.
Yes it will. My 20 KW charges it just fine.I wonder if a whole home generator like http://www.generac.com/Residential/Guardian/Products/Guardian_Series_17_kW/ Would charge the car.
