MC4 cable question

Question:

So is the 25foot MC4 cables enough to go from the controller to the batteries also? Why are there not battery connections included e.g. ring connectors or clamps? Seems like the kit should include that, or at the very least mention to buyers that that part is not included?

Yes your installation of the Go Power Eco Solar Charging System with Digital Solar Controller part # 34273837 should be located withing the range of the cables. In this case because it is a small panel designed to trickle charge your battery I would mount the panel and solar controller withing 25" of the battery and use the included cables to run the entire length. Like mount the solar panel and controller within 10 feet of each other cut the cable and use the remaining 15 feet to go to the battery.

Since all of the battery studs are different sizes the ring terminals are not included you will have heat shrink and butt connectors to install the fuse holder however. The just add on the appropriate sized ring terminals and it will trickle charge your battery for you.
