You covered all the bases, people usually charge at 48A using 14-50 or use the wrong conductors. Great to see it done right. It's probably worth the extra work you did to get it charging at 48A. When you're roadside, you want to charge it as fast as possible so you can limp the car to the next *actual* charger.
I'm in Austin. I recently purchased a 10k watt dual fuel (12k gas, 10k propane) generator. My 2001 dodge ram runs propane, my portable generator runs propane. The plan is offer the greenest mobile charging you can get. Using Dewalt Level 2 charger.
I wonder how long it would last also. Great idea but how much kwh does it provide per tank of gas and how long does it last? Did he actually try to charge his rivian completely with it? Did it over heat? Did it shut down midway? A lot of answer questions.

Another great video I have the gene in your video. The only thing on the other brand gene's is make sure it is nuetrally bonded for them to work. The westinghouse you have comes nuetrally bonded from the factory.
I’m really wanting to do this. I’m wanting to make an overland rig with my lightning and just having the peace of mind to do it would be great. I was thinking about the Westinghouse 20000 but this one seems like it would do just as good for one vechicke.
@@towtrucktech1555 I saw that one, good video! I live like an hour maybe hour and a half from you guys I will just drop it off and let you all have fun 😂. Any use out of either of them so far?
So in 30 minutes, what percentage would roughly charge the EV battery if it’s dead on the side of the road. Thinking of a business mode and how to price the calls.
You would get about 5-10% of range in half an hour. It's only level 2 charging. I think a 3 phase generator with a level 3 charger would make more sense for a business, but it would cost much more.
When you are recharging dead teslas an hour would put them to 30% average not sure what your ballpark price would be maybe $150 for emergency recharge 1 hour but I know professional locksmiths that make $250.00 per call and that’s less than an hour usually
I spoke to Pulsar and they told me that in order to power sensitive electronics with fancy circuit boards computers etc an inverter generator is recommended. Seems like what you have here is not a pure sine or atleast the product spec doesn't say it is but regardless maybe its not needed, it looks like it works fine Those inverter generators are way more expensive too.

Im starting a mobile charging service thank you
This is exactly what we are looking at building thanks for taking the time to put out this video

This was awesome. Well done!
perfect! this is what I had exactly in mind
How many hours can that generator run without filling it up?
until it runs out of gas lol

@@MilesChristiiI have the same questions.
How much charge do you get per gallon of gas?
How long does it take for a full charge?
I wonder if there is a way to plug the charger directly to the cars battery and use the engine in the car to charge.
What is the specs on the breaker that you bought?

We do a build with that unit too, check it out. The 20K is a monster.

What updates needed to be performed
awesome video
How would you make on to perform like a level 3 fast chargers

I would also like to know
did you ever find out any info on this?
@@nikoa7936 I don’t think so

How long you think it’s going to last
Donde lo puedo comprar?
One problem that generator is loud dope set up
It is, but it's a work horse. Stay tuned we have a 20kW build going right now.
@@towtrucktech1555 upload it
Most companies recommend that you use an inverter generator pure sine wave.
Specifically, which companies recommend the inverter. The unit here is sine wave.
I spoke to Pulsar and they told me that in order to power sensitive electronics with fancy circuit boards computers etc an inverter generator is recommended. Seems like what you have here is not a pure sine or atleast the product spec doesn't say it is but regardless maybe its not needed, it looks like it works fine Those inverter generators are way more expensive too.
Every newer generator has an inverter to adjust speed per wattage use so that’s hardly ever an issue now
Imagine running this generator on water! ♻️
