Yeah, what he said. Plus, our design generates DC directly and is
optimized for battery charging loads, making it much more efficient for
charging.

If the size and price are attractive, and it sounds like they are,
people will buy it. Probably your biggest challenge will be to get it
into the best distribution channels, which will also require good
after market support or they will drop you.

You will not believe the weird things that some people will try to do
with a unit like this and then expect it to keep on ticking. Just for
openers I would be prepared for a number of accidental reverse
polarity incidents. Then you've got the folks who will try to use it
indoors with the usual result, followed by the accidental muffler
burns, fires, salt water immersion, etc.
