Ready to install batteries... what am I missing?

Hi all.. based on tons of grateful input I am having two Battleborn lithium batteries installed next week in my 2021 320 Boondock. We have the Victron MPPT 75/10 controller which has the ability to change the setting to lithium.  The batteries are heated (we will be spending many nights above 5k feet in the spring and fall).  These should be installed in parallel for longer lasting powers (higher capacity Ah)...??


We have the standard solar panel installed on the roof.  

We will consider additional solar at some point as well. 

Am I missing anything?

    No, connect the two 12VDC batteries in parallel, the solar controller is matched to the TaB’s roof solar panels.  If you get additional portable panels, get one or matched pair with their mown solar controller, or add a second appropriately sized Victron controller to match the panel watt output, and Bob’s your uncle...
