Replacing Furrion 10A Solar Plug

Hello, I currently have the Furrion 10A connection on the side of my RV. I rewired it so my harbor freight 100 watt panel connects to the 10 amp connection and put the Renogy Wanderer 30A charge controller inside the camper. I'm going from there straight to 3 100ah lifepo4 batteries.

I know if I go to a 200 watt solar suitcase, it could put out 16.66 amps in theory. My question is, what is the max amperage comes out of the solar panels directly? I don't have access to the RV right now to measure voltage.

And if the amperage coming out of the panels before the controller exceeds 10 amps, has anyone come up with a direct replacement for the Furrion connector that can handle more current? Or beefed up the Furrion unit? Wires would be easy to upgrade, not sure about the pins.

Thanks for the help!

Nobody? What's the best way to keep a panel removable and portable for an RV then?
 
Cross posting the same question in multiple threads is frowned upon.

But to answer your question, look up some marine trolling motor bulkhead connectors, they are DC rated up to 50A+.
 
I posted in the wrong forum and it doesn't appear that I can delete it.

I wouldn’t have thought trolling motors, I will give that a look. Thanks.
