Following Exploristlife.com I think I have been misled by the diagrams and parts listing. I purchased a package through the site, but found the battery(parallel) wires to be called out for 2/0. Seemed a bit overkill, and the mppt 100/50 to bus bar called out @ 4awg; which will not fit... do I need a bigger mppt?
The manual has everything you need.
The tech specs section recommended 16mm or awg6 for battery cable. If you are making long runs consider using a bus bar and moving up to the larger size wire..
The bigger your links between batteries the better othewise you will get even worse current sharing, but the lynx power in will help with that, if you decide to use it, then you can use smaller wiring16mm for each individual battery. See victrons wiring unlimited book for more information.
