      Yes.  It provides 20 amps at 120vac, that translates to a lot of amps DC.  I've regularly put  60+amps out through the charger.

      Well, my POS xantrax finally died, and I’m looking to replace it with a separate charger and inverter.

      Can the Honda EU200i handle powering a 40 amp charger?

      I had a xantrex monitor on my last boat and was totally thrilled with
      it. So oi bought the 2000 and the freedom 20 and have been happy. The
      only time I called xantrex because of extreme vhf interference. They
      were totally useless. Turns out the cover wasn’t on right.

      Thanks for all of the replies, Anybody have a charger they like?
      There¹s a xantrex 40 amp I can get pretty cheaply that I like, but…

      Xantrex just made the top of my S list.

      1) the thing is complicated, and when it kicked out ³error #3073²
      Xantrex themselves could not tell me what it meant.

      2) I gave them the serial number and they said it was reparable, albeit
      with a $99 ³diagnostic fee² OK, so I spent $86 to ship it to them, only to
      have them tell me
      It¹s broke, and they have no boards that will fit it. Hmm, NO BOARDS.
      SO I ponder that for a moment and realize that I spent $200 and there was NO
      POSSIBILITY of fixing it regardless of the result of the ³diagnosis.² It
      sure seems to me they should have known they had no parts to fix it when I
      gave them the serial number, no?
