Ques for Tony Latham

How thick is the wood you used for the panel?
How deep is the electrical panel box...it looks like its about 1" deep in the picture and about 8" high and 2' wide.

It's 7" x 16" and 2" deep. I used 1/8" Baltic for the face.

The Aili meter is much better than the one I used for the book. They are about $40.

I have a jackery 1000v2 that I plan to use. I am working with a friend who is an electrician and he suggested putting the fuse block in the galley close to the jackery. I can switch out the battery later if needed but it made sense since I already had it. This has been an exciting and definitely challenging project. I'm so glad I took this journey - thank you for all your help along the way.

I think it's cool you took it on. Where will you put the Jackery?

I assume you'll still run wires to the galley in the event you put a battery back there?

I will put the jackery in the galley either in the far left cubby or the middle cubby. I'm leaning towards the same place you put your battery. When I'm not using the camper, I will disconnect the jackery and bring it inside the house.

The jackery will connect to the fuse block which I hope to put on the upper bulkhead above the counter in the galley (directly above the battery).

Sounds like a plan.
