Solar ready option

That's good to upwards of 800 watts, in parallel.

Wire will be 6 gauge.

So far, I have found it is just a wire from the roof to the battery. No feedback on the gauge yet.

As others have said it depends on what they are installing for this $200. If the wire is too thin the discussion about the utility of teats on boars can begin.

Personally I wouldn't bother....and I'm going to put solar on mine. There is no rocket science involved in routing wiring for solar.

Hi,

It was a selling point for my RV. I'd far far rather have solar than a genny. I would ask for #6 or #8 wire.

For me it's a no brainer for $200, although I don't exactly know what it entails. If it simplifies the process and provides a cleaner look to a solar installation it would be worth every penny. I'm sure it can be done for less costs if doing it yourself, but why bother when the factory can perform this rather easily while your rig is being built. When purchasing an RV it's about the out the door price, with good bargaining skills many options can be had for a fraction of their stated costs.

The only solar-ready I'm familiar with is a set of wires from the roof to the basement. They aren't likely to be bigger than #10, meaning any higher wattage array will be installed in series.

I'd pay $200 to not have to snake wire through the coach, yes. Compared to the thousands you're already paying, it's no biggie.
