2016 Fleet pre-wired for solar

[SCUD]

Thanks for all the info. I installed the Zamp ZS-US-EX-160-DX panel, ZS-30A controller, and resettable 40A last week. Dry-camped for 4 days at the NW Overland Rally in Plain, WA. Used the CR65 fridge (set at 4.5 & 38-40 degrees) continually, the (6.67A draw) BIPAP 9 hrs/night. The ceiling lights, Fantastic fan, cell/Bluetooth charger, water pump, & furnace were used as needed. The weather Thursday was a near-constant downpour, & gradually improved each day. The battery voltage never dropped below 12.3V, and reached 13.6V float charge before noon easily.

It looks like the installation works fine for now. When Fall arrives, another panel may be installed or a portable may be purchased.

The Zamp equipment was purchased from J R Vitale, who had great prices, was extremely patient and helpful. His website is www.offthegridrvs.com

i manage to plug in a 100w/12v "hqsolar" brand flexible solar panel to pre-wired plug in the back. The zamp plug is reversed in polarity. By switching the wires, its working. The 100w panel costs less than $200.
