Solar Juice pack upgrade
Hi,
We just got our new 2022 Arctic Wolf 287BH three weeks ago. It came with a 150W (100W+50W) on the roof. We're thinking to add another 4x100W solar and replace the battery with 2 Battleborn lithium batteries.
I'd like to reuse the existing cables if possible, but the wiring is so weird. I googled, the solar charging controller wiring is like this.
From the roof, I can see Forest River uses regular MC4 solar panel cables.
But from the battery compartment, it becomes the yellow&white wires. (please see the picture.)
Probably they tried to bring down the cost? The wires didn't show the AWG size. Does anyone know that? I'm thinking to go (100W+100W serial) + (100W + 100W serial) + (100W factory) parallel. If the AWG couldn't hold it, I may need to re-do the whole wiring myself. Any thoughts?
PS. I posted my question on the "ForestRiver" forum, but no response. So I re-post it here.
