Adding solar to my trailer. One of the foldable panel types. Going to stick a charge controller in the wiring area for it but need a connector for the inlet.
Needs to be panel mount
Not shared with other stuff so it wont get confused
Preferably weathersealed on its own
There is the "official Furry approved one" https://www.amazon.com/Furrion-FSPINS-BS-Black-Solar-Inlet/dp/B017P8H8XG
But kind of steep for a connector.
There is a cheaper chineseium version https://www.amazon.com/HangTon-Waterproof-Connector-Industrial-Coupling/dp/B07DLTV59M
Or the even cheaper chineiumer one https://www.amazon.com/SZJELEN-Waterproof-Circular-Aviation-Connector/dp/B07CCJQ14J
Or this one, but its a little too close to a SAE plug for my taste https://www.amazon.com/Kohree-Sidewall-Connector-Weatherproof-Generator/dp/B07XLK4CH3
Finally the panel has a 5.5x2.1 barrel out, so I could just stick with the cheapest, but concerned about weather resistance and those skinny little wires https://www.amazon.com/RLECS-Connector-Dustproof-Water-Proof-5-5x2-1mm/dp/B07X1HZLTF
So what say irate? Anyone used any of the options?
