Hi, So the mods on our new truck camper have begun and my next order of business is to install my battery monitor. I also will later be installing my solar panels & inverter (2000w) pure sine wave) I will be purchasing. Our TC has a basement area which as of right now looks like a good location to locate the charge controller and inverter when I get to it, as one of the walls divides the basement from the battery compartment. I was hoping to make one positive & negative connection to the battery bank through the wall and to positive & negative bus bars with the shunt connected between the battery bank and bus bars. All my loads, positive and negative going to respective bus bars. So on to my questions, first does this sound like a workable plan> Second, when selecting bus bars, what are key details I should be looking for in bus bars? Of course the required number of connections and wire size are factors. I have seen so many different styles, configurations and of course brands so looking for any thoughts, ideas and input others may have. Thanks.
