Cable Requirements for PD4655 Converter
I have the infamous WFCO 8955 converter in my toy hauler. Considering upgrading to a PD4655 to reduce my battery charge times. I have approx. 8-10 feet of 6 gauge cable that runs from my battery...

too small gauge of cable (for the run length) and may limit the PD4655's charge current when it's in the 14.4 volt bulk mode.
True? False?
True. You can't get cables that are too thick. There's always a compromise. I chose 1/0 welding cable (buy from the local welding store) for the reasons set forth above, but think about your needs. If you don't need maximum rate charging at the end, because you normally are plugged in or have solar, your cables may be fine.
