That's a good question Don. My generator is started by the chassis batteries. Does a generator charge up it's own starter batteries when it's running? Like a car charges it's own battery when it's running? I've never checked the voltage directly on the chassis batteries with the generator running to see if it's charging them. I know on your rig the generator starts using the house batteries. And then the converter/charger starts charging the batteries. But I wonder if you unplugged the converter/charger and checked the house batteries would they not show they are being charged by the generator?
