Thanks for the added info. From 89% to 100% is doable with a generator. I had a similar setup but would often be down to 70% by morning and the generator run time for that was painful. I added solar and on good sun days it's all solar. If partial sun it's one hour of generator in the morning and the rest (absorption) from solar.
