The POWERMINDER will run your diesel for 2 reasons:
1) When the load is too high for the inverter. Then the diesel will run to supply the high load and charge the battery store at the same time. A typical property will use the diesel for 2 to 4 hours a day on high loads.
2) When the battery store is low the diesel will run until the store is well charged, typically 3-6 hours, every 2 days.
On a daily basis the number of hours the diesel runs will depend on your electricity consumption.
The key point is that whenever the diesel runs it will be properly loaded and so will perform better. Each drop of diesel is used more efficiently.
