Hi everyone.
My friend has a pop-up trailer and I've been helping him install a solar setup. He bought a couple Renogy panels, a 60A charge controller, and a 12V 200Ah battery. The trailer itself has two 6V 200Ah batteries in series in the front of the trailer. It looks like the wires they're using to connect it to the wiring harness are close to 10 gauge.
I'm curious what gauge wire I should be using to connect these batteries to the charge controller (serving as the alternator since those batteries are charged by the truck). Any advice or input here? I figured the wires on those batteries would have to be closer to 2 or 0.
