Probably 'hoggin' along @ half thottle on a 4' brushhog, listening to the hog and engine, you would be able to judge how hard (even as a novice) you were working the system.
However, I would respectfully DISAGREE with you about running a generator designed for 540 on 1000 rpm at 1/2 throttle. Mebbe "light loads" for light bulbs, etc, but how about a bulk tank full of milk (store shelf value $3000/5000 or more)!
Don't care how many HP your tractor has at half throttle, the governors are still too slow for electric(ity). BTDT, as a serviceman for Mueller bulk tanks. When you have the contactors chatter (and burn out; to include any solid state PC Boards) on a compressor and every light in the barn flashing (and everything else that's running) ,you will see my point. Pay the man. That's some money you have saved.
RUN THE STANDBY GENERATORS AT THE CORRECT RPM!!!!
Lord, I 'poligize to the starvin' pygmys in NewGuinea fer me rant on this'un, but hope to save a contactor,compressor or2, or your $)
