Hi Bush, I don't know where you are, but I have a 5kw 48 volt inverter/charger  sitting in my shed if you want it.
No charge, but it is really heavy, something like 30kg or more.
I live in Tasmania so depending on where you are freight may be a killer.
Unless you know someone who could pick it up for you.
It is a verson of the Powerstar W7 inverter chargers. It has two EI transformers in it so weighs heaps.
I was given it as it needed repairs, but it was only a broken weld on the battery terminal that I needed to fix.
I use 24 volts so don't have a need for it.
They are a fairly power hungry inverter but as a charger they are fine.
I had a 24 volt version of the W7 and it dumped near 100 watts in idle power.
cheers
Pete
