I live in WA and I am purchasing a brand new caravan in NSW, so it won't be licensed in NSW (I will have a 5 day travel permit).

Just bought an accessory solar blanket. It has an attached controller. Should i just bypass this controller since the main collectors on the roof feed into controllers anyway. Two controllers seems unnecessary? Young Brodie
