My plan was to have the
solar panel cables come through the roof to connect to the charge controller, then exit through the floor with
battery cables to connect to
battery.
So I'm thinking why not just run the
solar cables down the front of the trailer, mount a box for the charge controller somewhere close to the
battery, and then have just 3' of cable to the battery. I plan on having 2 y cables that will allow me to connect a portable
solar panel if I choose to. I could locate the y cables in the box so they would be easily accessible.
Outside of appearance, is there any reason not to run the cables outside?
Any ideas on how to make it look pretty? If the cables were white, I might not even worry about it.
