A continuation from my first POST about this subject
I got the panel mounted tonight. 3M VHB tape and some angle iron. Seems to hold well!
The hardware is #10 stainless self-drilling screws with star washers from a local hardware store. I did add some 5200 around the connector once plugged in to help hold it down. I wasn’t confident that it would stay plugged in, or that the cord would seal well to the boot.
I’ve been wanting to permanently mount a solar panel on the roof of our truck camper since installing the Truckfridge TF49 compressor type refrigerator. Routing the wires in was the biggest obstacle. Through a few internet searches, I decided on a marine bulkhead. I used 3M 5200 to seal this little guy to the roof, then routed the wiring through the tent and cabinets and down to the battery.
If it does ever leak, at least it will be in an area outside the tent.
