Tight on space. Manual says to mount these things with 10cm clearance and terminals facing down.
Well. Sorry Victron but space is limited.
Good thing is I'll almost never need to use the DC to DC charger.
Gooder news is the space this will go in is rather significantly ventilated. If I have issues with temps I can, and will, add a fan.
Before pic. The goodies all have to go to the right of the battery.
The abomination. I've got some plastic wire loom to put on once I sort out what's what with my fuse box. There will be a 150a class T feeding two 40a ANL fuses. One to the camper itself and one to the fuse box for the misc stuff I have up there.
Are there good quality exterior 12 volt sockets and plugs in the market that can be rained on? I want an external solar input and 12v output.
And just because I'm currently working on it, I just got my cells yesterday. That is the "bus cable" plan and orientation however I need to build a box to put them in yet. Of course they'll be nice and square then.
3.291, 3.331, 3.330, 3.330 out of the box and without damage, though based on other comments about this seller I'll be surprised to see the full 280ah.
This battery should never see more than 40a in either direction, but I'm using 2awg cable in place of bars.
Just need to go get some better terminal screws later today.
