Is D180 the right size for the installation?
Choose D180 when the required charging output, battery-bank size, daily energy demand, or runtime makes it the best fit in the AutoGen range.
Best fit
Larger off-grid systems, technical sites, remote infrastructure, and backup installations that need charging output up to 10 kW and 180 A.
Use D100 instead
Choose D100 when the site still needs diesel 48V DC charging and connected support, but the 10 kW D180 package is more capacity than the installation requires.
Use V100 instead
Choose V100 when the installation is smaller, lighter, or better suited to the Honda GX390 petrol generator package.
D180 product questions.
Key points about charging output, connectivity, direct DC charging, and choosing D180 over D100.
When should I choose D180 instead of D100?
Choose D180 when the installation needs charging output up to 10 kW or current up to 180 A. D100 provides up to 5.6 kW and 100 A in a smaller single-cylinder diesel package.
Does D180 include connected monitoring?
Yes. Depending on configuration, D180 can use WiFi or LTE for cloud access, with app and dashboard visibility, BLE setup, WiFi Local AP, API support, and dealer tools. GPS is available with the LTE version.
Does D180 charge a 48V battery bank directly?
Yes. The permanent magnet alternator provides adjustable DC charging output up to 180 A and 57.6 V, without using a conventional AC-first generator and external battery-charger path.
Who is D180 for?
D180 suits larger off-grid battery banks, hybrid backup systems, telecom and technical sites, remote infrastructure, and installations that need up to 10 kW of connected diesel charging.
