Wow, I am continually amazed at the creativity of our group... Rando, what a gem... Hadn't thought about the "enjoying the outdoor experience" and not loosing it with the 4 wheel setup until you mentioned it above... for us we use a small backpack camp stove to brew coffee outside each morning...

GD...question answered... ha ha... shopped for a hole cutter and found that 21/8 is a "standard" size often used for door knobs...I should be "good to go"... the monitor should fit like a glove. Appreciate your photos--will duplicate your approach especially using tape over the "hole area" and...

GD, Got my Victron 700... don't do this very often, so need to ask some "simple carpentry" questions about how best to cut the hole in the cabinet for the meter... what size hole cutter did you use? most have mentioned 2" (for the 52mm diameter of the meter)... how did you enlarge the extra...

Hi Paul...thanks for the update on your panel...yup, we live "on the Channel" at Casselman's Moorage--just over the hill--howdy neighbor!...must be close to Helvetia Tavern? At the moorage, our 93 Nissan w/ Fleet parked f/t in our parking lot...have a '16 Fleet but used about 10 times--just...

Just a practical question... the "shunt" that comes with the victron 700 batt. monitor...what are the dimensions of the "shunt? ... doing research on where to mount the shunt in my set up...looking at my battery box in my Fleet (w/ bench) about where to mount the shunt--I have 2" above the 2 6v...

Thanks folks for your feedback... one update--I talked to a local rep who sells the 2x6V Fullriver AGM batts we run...he confirmed trying not to go below 12.2v (50%) for maintaining battery longevity... .also our p/u is 93 Nissan V-6...can't tell you anything about it alternator output or...
