Finally ready to upgrade Solar charging components. I was little surprised how big the Victron 100/30 is. Not sure if it is going to fit in the backside of where the old ZAmp controller is located, and not sure what to do about the hole too. I assume I will need to take the sink off in my 2016 Grandby with side dinette to installed the Victron behind the hole.
I have read recommendations to installed the Victron as close to the batteries as possible, but seems like more work and potentially loss of storage space. Also I worry about heat dissipation issue from the Victron.
Any suggestions from Grandby owners who has installed the 100/30 would be appreciated.
I also just ordered a Bougerv 180 watts panel to replace the stock ZAmp 160. Will shave 10 lbs off the roof. 20% off right now.
