Hey mate, For my setup, the solar controller connects back to my fuse block with 6mm twin auto cable from Narva (50A capacity). From there it connects back to my battery on a main 6 B&S cable (100A capacity)
Hey bro love your setup and have been watching a few of your videos! Love the content man. Personally, I'm setting up my canopy atm and have a few questions in regards to wiring up 12v setup. I'm looking at going victron, I already have a 75/16 mppt charger and looking at get a shunt and dcdc charger. Possible if we could like on a social and get some advice of you please. Cheers, Panda.
Hey Panda, Thanks for the support mate I appreciate it. Good on ya for having a crack. Yeah for sure, more than happy to help out where I can. Hit me up on Instagram or Facebook and we'll see what we can do!
Hey Brett, main reason mate is we run all of our loads off the battery through individual fuses. We use the Victron charger purely to charge our battery.
@@volcanic5187 not sure yet, we’ve been looking at everything from camper trailers to pop tops to full caravans 😂 Still early days at the moment. Just need to find out what’ll be best long term
Yeah, its spinning my head too, its not an easy one to pinpoint if you're doing different trips, have growing families etc etc cheers mate@@OutNAboutAustralia
Nice little setup, simple & robust. Good job.
Thanks mate, it definitely does the job 👍🏽
Thanks so much for your time.
What a great simple setup 👍.
No worries mate,
Hope you got some value out of it 👍🏽
Nice video mate. What size AWG wires did you use between solar controller and battery?

Hey man, wondering if you still have/use the jayco hawk pop up ? I have a pop top van & thinking to change it for a full pop up..
Hey mate, yep still got it and love it. We've been looking into upgrading but it's still doing a great job for us!
Cool thanks for the quick reply, would you stick to the same thing, full pop up if upgrading ?@@OutNAboutAustralia
