Dead space behind oven? larger converter wires to Batt?
1. I am installing an inverter and I've been looking behind the cabinets etc to find someplace to put it. I've discovered a large area behind the battery box (from the outside) and behind the oven (from the inside). In a truck camper this seems like a lot of wasted space, seems they could have made a bigger battery box so I could fit larger batteries or put in a second outside door to use this space.
Is this dead space required behind the oven for heat dissipation?
2. As part of the install I am running large wire to the inverter, I've noticed that the factory wire between the converter and the batteries is quite small, looks to be 10 gauge.
Would I gain anything by upgrading this to larger wire? Don't seem to be having any problems with it charging the batteries. It's a Progressive Dynamics 4000 series with built in charge wizard.
