Looks nice Wayne. It looks like you just had enough room for the panels when the TM is folded down. I have a couple of questions...

1) Do you worry about being in a hail storm and breaking the panels? Do you take something with you to cover the panels if bad weather approaches?

2) How much wire do you have hanging from the rear top shell when the TM is folded down, and how to you tie it up? Do you have any pictures of that?

3) Did you put your MPPT controller, and your inverter in the same rear compartment as the battery? Do you have any pictures of that?

4) I can't remember from your other post on your solar panel installation, what gauge wire did you use from the panels to the MPPT and what gauge from the MPPT to the battery?

I guess I had more than a couple of questions ...

Thanks, Keith
