It's 700 watts, 900 peak. I bought this last year with Ryobi labels on it. Sound isn't bad but the case rattles a lot. I bought it mainly for charging the batteries on my camper since I always have propane with me.

How many amps does it send to the batteries to charge?

I have the Ryobi model. There is no DC output to directly charge a battery so you'd need a charger.

Most campers/RVs have an integral power converter/charger which could be operated with this generator.

Check the specs on the converter/charger in your camper/RV, but a 30-50 Amp charging rate is typical when connected to shore power. If you have just one car battery then with no other load that's fast enough to top it off in a hour or fully charge it in 2-3 hours. (Obviously rough estimates.)

At 700 Watts continuous this unit can theoretically deliver up to 50A for charging a car battery. (700W/13.6v = 51A, but count on >20% loss due to conversion efficiency.)
