If it's to be able to charge batteries, then it would have to be significantly
higher than 12V. An auto battery is about 25% charged at 12V, fully charged at 12.7, and chargers typically use 13.5 - 14V to do the charging. Which it may
be, it might just be labeled and spec'd incorrectly. If it's really 12V, it's
not going to work to charge an auto type battery. But it's definitely not
to charge the battery for the generator itself as the OP suggested. That's already taken care of by the generator.

Don't remember that the OP put a VOM on it,
so we're just going by some company that
labels the socket.
