Installing 2 100amp Battle Born in parallel, a Victron Shunt, and a 1200 watt inverter. My question; Does the negative wire for the inverter go directly to the inverter, from the battery or through the shunt ? I understand the negative off the battery goes through the shunt. Just not clear the...

Fantastic, Thanks

Thanks,

I have been reading everything I can find on Awnings. Seems a lot written years ago. Any new comments ? Brand ? Fiamma ? Where to purchase ? Any and all help, pro and con wil help! Thanks Oh what I have learned. There is so much information one this site ! I purchased the Fiamma 45s. Great...

Greetings, The concern of mounting solar panels directly to the roof was mentioned by someone that thought I was using a conventional rigid camper and driving in extreme off road conditions. But 4Wheel campers by design do not have a rigid roof, so to speak. Plus I do not drive extreme off...

I was recently advised not to put a Solar Panel on the roof of my 2006 Hawk, since I ocassionaly drive dirt roads. I don’t drive the road to the Race Track in Death Valley, or the road to Patriarch Grove, in the Ancient Bristlecone Forest fast. Should I use an anti vibration isolation mount...

Thanks Rando

Which Victron Battery Sensor ? I was using a Victron BMV 700 with AGM batteries. But have changed to BB Lithium 100ah. Should Use a different Victron Battery Sensor? All other components, solar charger and dc charger are Victron, and it would be good they worked with the blue tooth, phone ap...

Thanks Rich, I have learned so much due to all the generous folks on this site. One of the interesting things is knowing which question to ask and utilizing the search area to further research. On the Adventures Fred

The switches are so I can isolate the separate components in case of emergency. I realize they maybe over kill,so to speak, just a redundant safety. Fred

Thanks Jon, The # 4 wire runs from the truck battery to the camper, so it is the longest run, therefore the double fuses. As I am apt the go off road a bit, I double fuse often. But you are spot on with thoughts about short runs. On the adventure Fred

I am wiring a Dc to Dc Charger and Solar Panel and controller into my 2006 Hawk. # 4 welding cable from the truck battery to a 100A 285 series circuit breaker ( next to the battery) to 100A circuit breaker in the camper area ( next to the battery /component area) , The wiring will be split at...

Gracious, oh my.. I will alter future use of stainless to the aluminum roof. Thanks

Holes are in the roof ! Hurray ! i will add pictures when I figure how to post them. I followed Vic’s advice from 15 September, 2020 that was a response to Adding Solar to 2002 FWC Hawk post. It took me a while to find the post. Renogy cover on the roof. 3m4200 and #8 stainless sheet metal...

Go slow, so true. Thanks

Time to put a hole in the roof of my Hawk for solar wiring. It is not pre wired, so I am running new wires. I have a Renogy cover to be mounted to the roof. I don't want to pull the ceiling, but understand it is best to keep wiring out of the elements. So my question is, Where best to punch...

How are you guys getting #4 wire into an Orion-Tr Smart 12/12-30 Dc/Dc charger ? Try as I might, a number of strands are not making it into the opening. #6 fits fine, but.. I am going to run #4 from the truck battery to the Anderson Connector, but what gauge from the Connector to the charger...

Thanks Rich, I will modify my techniques. Oh the Adventures Fred

Thanks to all. Oh I hope I am doing this right. The previous owners found a sale on Silicon, and bedded the screws and covered the washers and screw heads with liberal amounts. It is amazing I have not had leaks before, but then it does not rain in Southern California. I am slowly removing all...

Seems there are a few different Siksflex products, which one is your preferred ? Thanks, Fred A.Smith
