Hello Everyone,

As I move forward on my project I have hit a bit of indecision... Where are my batteries, charge controller, inverter and load center going to go?

I was going to put them all in the outside storage bays. I contacted the manufacturer and asked what the weight limits on the storage bays was. I even got to talk to a genuine engineer who gave me a very qualified "I don't know". That makes me a little shy about stuffing 500 pounds of batteries in them and hoping.

I do have a space that will not be ideal for daily accessibility that I could use instead.. The usable space is approximately 26"x 72" and 26" tall. I can partition it into separate compartments. one for the batteries and the other for all of the electronics/electrical. If I go this route the battery compartment would vent into the engine compartment. Would that be an issue?

Take a look at the pics and tell me what you think?
