I have a single 12V house battery and thinking of purchasing a portable 50 or 100W suitcase solar panel that attaches directly to the battery, or replace the small solar panel with a larger one.
Regarding back up camera. I just had a wired model installed. It is on the rear bumper and the wiring goes under the rig. It was not possible to have a wired camera installed at the top of the rig.
Thank you 510dogmom - this is helpful. I truly have no idea if I'll even need the dual battery setup any time soon. For the backup camera, why wasn't it possible to be installed at the top of the rig?
The walls are solid and thick. There is no way you can run wires down to under the carriage without seeing the wiring inside the RV or down the back or side of the RV. CA makes their rigs as dummy proof as possible and as unbreakable as possible. That is one of the main reasons I like my CA 23A, I have a history with RVs, but that was with my ex-husband. This is MY first solo rig and I'm learning by hands on. I need a rig that will be as forgiving as possible with my blunders and errors. ;)
Thinking about it, if I decide to upgrade my solar power, If I can, I will upgrade the panel that is already on the rig.
