Problems with Boondocker 60 amp converter

I've set my Megawatt (S-400-12) to 14.82; I'll forgo the adjustable POT for now and use it solely for the generator charging segment with the intermatic (when I find one)

I am running 4GA wire (6' of battery booster cables purchased on sale) from my charging 'center' to the dual DC24 batteries. Hmmm, may have to boost the megawatt a bit since the voltage drop for 12/30AMP on 6 feet is
Voltage drop: 0.089
Voltage drop percentage: 0.60
Voltage at the end: 14.731

Also connected will be a solar charge controller (trimetric SC-2030 (w/o monitor)). Haven't found the solar panel yet.

Everything monitored with a Victron 700 AH counter in the trailer.

Finally, a 300W PS inverter (SAMLEX - older one found in clearance sale - with 16.5 input limits) supplying a 20 feet AC (14AWG - 120 volt drop < 3 per cent) wire to a special outlet in the trailer for powering the entertainment system at night.

Still gathering parts (from everywhere; ebay, amazon, electric supply, web sites).

Using 8 AWG T-90 wire for most of the interconnect on the charging center.

Finally completed the project, ready to install. Hope this picture reference works.
Even have mex's timer :)
