These pictures are not of the final install, as the victron is now mounted on the right side divider of the compartment, and cables/breakers and various add-ons are not fixed in place here. The shunt, not pictured, is currently just dangling - its a work in progress.
For compression - look close: there's a 1x6 on each end held tight by a ratchet strap. This is an ingenious way to apply compression in a very controlled manner, with evenly distributed pressure, and yet can be removed in seconds. I also am of the mind set that compression may be overrated in its need, regardless of the increase in lifespan, but I did it really well anyway.
The weight may be more than I originally stated, as I think it may be measured in kilos, I'll have to revisit it to get the actual numbers.
The Victron is amazing really, I'll post more about the full system tonight.
