ISB Sola Basic advice?
I'm interested in buying a Sola Basic voltage regulator for our Class C 30 AMP RV, but have a question about the wiring. I'm looking for one I don't have to hard wire. I'm in Mexico (Sayulita) now...

This might not be to good for RV's since it does take up a lot of space and needs orientation for connective air circulation of the cooling fins plus the dedicated ground, I think that the ISB Sola Basic is a better option.
Ecowise 30A: 26 x 16.5 x 18 cm, 7kg.
Sola 4KVA: 29 x 21 x 25.5 cm, bigger and much heavier 12.7 kg.
Fins orientation in Ecowise, yes.
One thing that is better in Eco is that it doesn't have fixed boost step at low voltage, but rather, keeps it steady 115V, no matter if the input is 100 or 140.
I recall Don had problems with Sola because it didn't boost until voltage dropped to 100-something?
Interesting - Eco description at homedepot.mx says "pico suppressor". I don't see it mentioned on Eco website.
ATVR-5000 is same big and heavy as Sola, but I like the cost and amps. Somehow it feels like Chinese import though. Can anybody comment on alleged protection from "surge and spike" in this unit?
