Default RE: Interested in electric pattern

Next are some of the specifications of the Honda EU1000 generator:

1000 watts (8.3 A) of Honda inverter 120V AC power
Super quiet - 53 to 59 dB(A)
Lightweight (less than 29 lbs. !!)
Eco-Throttle - runs up to 8.3 hr on 0.6 gal. of fuel
12v - 8A DC output


As can be seen , it has a DC output, 12V 8 amp. , most probably the DC voltage is not as clean as the voltage of a DC power supply. I am wondering if the DC output of the generator is good enough to feed the TP 1010C charger for the Lipo battery .

Has somebody used this generator in DC output mode, I mean, without using a DC power supply conected to the 120 Vac output , to feed the charger at the field ?

I guess that this generator could take up to two TP 1010C chargers to charge two 10SP lipo's simultaneously. Any advice on this ?
