It's probably time to part ways with Magnum Energy and modernize your electrical architecture. Victron seems the way to go and plays well with those interested in Solar and seems to have a better offering and a vast array of modern components including much better inverters.
 
I agree - it’s just a big jump. But it may still be in my future. One of the reasons I’ve held off is that I’m not certain I’m keeping this coach for the duration. Once I figure that out, the decision will be easier. Right now I am using two Victron solar controllers with blue tooth adapters (VE.Direct Smart Dongle) but the rest is still Magnum.

This post is a suggestion for Newmar to consider changing their vendor for inverters and components from Magnum Energy to Victron Energy. If anyone agrees feel free to click the UP arrow on the side of the post to upvote it.
