Nice! I knew I was in the right spot.
I bought the Renogy 200w kit with the cheaper PMW controller. I saw a video where a guy went from Panel > Controller > to just behind the DC panel because his run to batts was too long. here https://youtu.be/oqfIjfF5eGQ?t=8m38s
I read the comments and there were a few too many that said it was a bad install for my taste. I think I came up with an alternative option which will allow me to put the controller close to the batts, but would include mounting it on the door of the battery compartment (would like your feedback on the idea of mounting it on the door).
Thanks again.
