The TLG-500
CONSERVATIVE
Industry Standard
"Instantaneous Output"
Here's your B.S. ;)
FOR AMUSEMENT
PROPOSE ONLY
Below is the "very conservative" industry standard "INSTANTANEOUS" rating,
AKA never gonna happen!
I refer to this as I. L. S. ratings (If
Lighting Strikes) you will see that many watts of power. ;)
I do have to admit the TLG-500's conservative instantaneous rating of 5700
Watts does
look impressive.
Note: What I mean by "very conservative" is I did not short
the leads on a shunt load which is the typical procedure for this
rating. I used the
actual true potential going
into the battery as my source for the amperage reading, then
multiplied that by the open voltage.
If I had shorted the leads the amperage spike (spark) would
be much higher thus the Instantaneous output for the TLG-500 generator would be
even more ludicrous than it is.

Remember the is what TLG calls I.L.S.
ratings and does not consider it to be the real output of the unit.
TLG rates its Wind Generators output by "Real World" data.
