Well, if your generator is like mine on a 4A (or on second thought, 6's use
a nice
 alternator, right?  What is its output?), then at night the system runs at
a slight 
DISCHARGE!!!!  You will get just far enough before your engine dies to make
it 
impossible to get home to try to jump it again!!!!
