Just bought a 2024 Momentum 23g this year. It came with 2 x 200W solar panels, and a WFCO WF-5220 2000W Inverter (pictured, on the floor). I opened up the access panel in the front external storage compartment, and found a lot of empty space above the inverter and next to the solar controller...

I have a 22 17MKE and am in the process of purchasing equipment and materials for adding a 3000va Victron inverter/charger and upgrading the solar charging system. I believe my unit is an early 22 model and have not seen the inverter prep sticker on my unit. Is it still possible that it has the...

A small Dilemma. Installing a Rich Solar Mega 200 Watt 12 V panel with a Solar Panel Connectivity Reverse Adapter. With the MC4 to SAE plugged in Polarity is in fact reversed. I have to attach the SAE to SAE that will correct this issue, but it does not supply enough clearance with where I...

We have the 2023 xls lde with the 165w solar package. We don't boondock very often so I am pumping the breaks on cost of updating the panels and we have a generator. I don't want to run the generator for 16 hours though. I am hoping to get a bit more solar without breaking the bank and any...

I kind of figured the 165W panel and MPPT charger would keep my battery topped off when I stored my camper for 2+ weeks between outings. But in what appears to me that the wiring isn't connected how I would have. When the battery is disconnected using the battery disconnect in the storage...

Several owners on this forum and FaceBook mention going with larger solar arrays - meaning 3 or more panels. Should you decide to interconnect any solar panel combination resulting in a DC voltage >= 60 V, I’ve attached the RV Industry Association’s (RVIA) recommended practice for RV mounted...

Hi All, I'm in the process of replacing my batteries with lithium along with a solar and Victron install. I'm pretty solid on almost all of the install, but find my self questioning the grounding process, especially after seeing how GD installed the stock components. I'll try my best not to...

Friends, I know there are many of you who have done your own solar and inverter installs. Have any of you seen damage from the high DC voltage associated with desulfation or Bulk charging? I have been considering a DC regulator to ensure that the 15.5v during desulfation or 14.5v during...
