    Furrion Solar Connector

    The 337RLS has a solar connector on the front of the unit that seems to connect directly to the battery.

    Does anyone know how to obtain a matching male connector I could use to hook up solar panels through this connector?

    Amazon search reports a much cheaper solution.
    9M9 10AWG 2 Pin Power Industrial Circular Connector to SAE Cable for Solar Panel Suitcase and Grand Design, Fit for Furrion, Forrest River RV Solar Ports, Grand Design RV's Industry

    For those who will use this with a solar panel, this is designed for the Furrion panels, which already have a charge controller built onto the back of their panels. This connector is a direct wire to your battery(s) Don't connect solar panels directly to your battery, you might overcharge the battery and "cook" it. It is best to get a solar charge controller to make sure it does not over charge, back current, and other bad things.

    It does connect directly to the battery but people typically put some kind of charge controller between the solar panel(s) and their battery to avoid cooking the battery.

    I mounted the controller in the front compartment of our fifth wheel, wired the connector to the controller, wired the controller to the battery and now I plug the panel into the connector. That keeps the controller in a protected environment.
