Could you mount the converter near the batteries. I mounted my PD9260 in the compartment next to the batteries, and used battery cables from the local auto parts store to tie to the batteries (less than 3 feet). Ran the 120 Volt AC in plastic electrical conduit to the converter. There's almost no drop between converter and battery. The solar controller is mounted next to the converter, and uses the same battery cables.
