Pic of the battery setup and harness to the shelter. Going to figure out a mount on the back of the trailer for a permanent install.

Guess I better put up some pics or it didn’t happen... It’s kind of funny firing up the generator inside the shelter because the startup procedure using the APU has no power inside so have to use a flashlight to see the control box. Going to fix that with some DC lighting off batteries...
