Hi all,
Doing some rewiring of my T@B to add solar and an inverter. I can't find a size marked anywhere on the stock cables. The crimp on connector is red, which seems to indicate 8AWG. That sounds about right for the loads. Can someone confirm?
Edit - Tore more stuff apart and answered my own question. Yes, the stock cables going from the battery box to the battery switch are 8 AWG. I got crazy and pulled off my battery box cover to ensure that there are decent sized cables going from the batteries to the outside of the box. Those are 2 AWG. I also found that contrary to my paperwork, I have the 2 x 6V 224 AH batteries, with HB DTA6224 batteries.
Now I get to put it all back together, but with solar and an inverter added. And yes, I'm using bus bars. I'll post photos when done.
Thanks!

Does anyone know if the battery connections on the outside of the black battery enclosure on the 18/19 T@B400 are 5/16" or 3/8" diameter ? ( I am not with my trailer/home right now but need to order some stuff so it is there when i get home).
