fuse in the battery compartment?
One last issue with my solar install: The controller manual says the fuse needs to be no more than six inches from the battery terminal. That would locate it inside the battery box under the steps...

I can't see how it makes any difference where the fuse is. If the wire is carrying enough amps to blow it, it's going to be carrying that amperage its entire length.
Well, see, that was my thinking as well. Amps are amps, right?
But, in addition to the Renogy manual I have heard that fuses should be as close to the load as possible. I have no idea.
