Subject: Installing a Renogy 100 watt Suitcase solar Panel
Posted: 19 Jun 2016 at 11:25pm
I have been trying to upload pic but i am new to the forum and have not "got" it yet. I bought a 100 watt panel with no controller. It was about $120 on Amazon. I bought the controller separately for $75 on eBay. It is flush mounted so you see no wires and mounted it in the counter as you walk into the tt. It's a great controller as it tells me volts at the battery, volts at the panel and amps. It has option for temperature but the wires are only about 6 feet. If you crawl under the cabinet there is a panel easily removed from the back which will expose the wires from the solar port. Cut the wires at the splice and run those to the battery side of controller. Spice 4 feet 10 gauge wire from Home Depot to the port and run it to the solar panel side of controller. Add 2 fuses and wire from the solar panel to the port;and, your done.
