We just installed a Victron amp hour meter to keep track of how our house batteries are doing. This will make it a lot easier to know when to run the generator, and how long to run it for. Ideally, we work our batteries between 60-90% charged, where the generator is most efficiently used to generate charging amps.
This meter also monitors the engine starting battery bank voltage, which would have been really handy to have back when those batteries were dying.
