Oh my goodness yes, now I see it!😃 For whatever reason when I looked at it earlier today I was thinking it’s a view from the top down!🤪

I see you mounted the Victron CC flat, Victron recommend to install it vertically with the electrical terminals facing downwards. How long have you had it installed flat and any issues? Asking because I’m looking at adding a solar suitcase with Victron 100/30 CC mounted somewhere near the current 100/50 CC and 3000W inverter.

Further to my above post, here’s a thread from the AS forum with good info about VHB tape. https://www.airforums.com/forums/f37/3m-vhb-tape-204288.html …and a Google search revealed VHB tape #5962 is actually best for fibreglass applications. That said, I also remember reading on a AS thread a few years ago where 3M stated VHB tape should be used in conjunction with mechanical fasteners. However, like I said before AM Solar have been using VHB tape, as well a bunch of people in the AS world without issues.

Yes, unless they have changed what they use now in the last 12 months, they have always used 3M VHB 4950. However, 4611 has a higher temperature range and is also commonly used.

AM solar has been using 3M VHB to mount solar panels for many years without issues from what I’ve heard.

Yup, I just assumed he got the "old" 1 1/4 (or is it 1 1/2") receiver with his 2024 Ollie. My mother always said, assumption is the mother of all "f" ups! 😜

No worries, get yourself one of these or similar, much studier than that new Oliver 2' receiver!

Looking good Mike! What heavy duty star board and epoxy did you use here?

Very good choice with Epoch batteries, I mean, if Will Prowse gives it a thumbs up it must be good!😊 HERE’S the Review by Will Prowse

A pity you couldn’t keep the battery slide with the new batteries!

I still have the outside upper vent on my 2023 with the 12V Isotherm fridge, but no more outside upper vent on the 2024s though. My 2023 ..and a 2024

Actually I believe they all extended the end square aluminum tubing as supports.

I don't have a rear cargo carrier/basket, but here are 3 threads that might give you some ideas.

Here's an earlier thread on same topic.

Yes you have to keep turning it until you feel a click. The light however still comes on when the door is opened, even when the fridge is turned “off”.

Good question yes!

That’s not good, that means the bottom is bowed/buckled downwards then!

If they haven’t already, they should touch base with Oliver, maybe strike a deal as a supplier!

haha yes to make money!😉

Here's a nice video from Oliver (Jason) showing where the 16 grease zerks are and how to grease them, enjoy! make sure you buy a grease gun with flexible hose and a lockNlube grease gun style coupler like this.

Very good read, thanks Steve.

Yup, that’s probably what I’ll end up doing.

Yup I will have to Jerry-rig a contraption, like @topgun2 said, a really big leveller on one side! 😊

I would love to be able to tilt/angle my roof solar panels like @John E Davies did in THIS thread. However, the solar panel mounting brackets on the newer Ollivers are different than the earlier rigs like John's. I'm not sure when they changed the solar panel mounting brackets, maybe 2022? Has anybody with brackets similar to mine (below pics) figured out a way to tilt the solar panels?

@Wandering Sagebrush this is what I get when I click on that link.
