Nick,
I recently looked into installing a Little Rosie on the door of an
E-panel lite and decided against it. Just not enough room to get the
battery cables connected. I ended up with the Little Rosie mounted
vertically beside an E-panel lite. To tell you the truth I wasn't happy
with the vertical installation of the little Rosie. Per the installation
manual you are only allowed to mount it vertically in one orientation
and that leaves the top of the Little Rosie at risk of dropping things
into it through the ventilation slots.

Greetings Wrenches,
Has anyone tried updating an Outback E-panel to accommodate a Midnite
Little Rosie yet? I'm still looking for ways to upgrade my VFX FXR
systems with 24v inverters without having to buy from the new owners
at Outback as well as solve battery communications and seems like a
Little Rosie is quite doable. I'm told I can get a blank door from
Midnite and appears that there are a few extra inches to spare
relating to the LR and E-panel length. Beyond that getting the AC and
DC conductors out of the LR through the E-panel door seems to be the
only sticking point. Possibly just modifying a 4x4 wireway gutter
would work.
Thought perhaps one of you has already attempted this! Thanks for your
time, Nick
