Having Expion360 lithium batteries and solar system installed as we speak. Will share experience as we get some miles under our belt.
Would be interested in hearing about the details of your install and where you put some of the components. Interested in seeing battery monitor placement as well. Hope all goes well.

Looking forward to your thoughts on the E360s as very close to making that decision myself. I have the Zamp 100 expandable solar on my 19" FC and really love it as it keeps the batts charged and handy for the basics when dry camping.
In my Classic I removed the sofa and built a cabinet where I placed the 4 batteries, Victron charger and other components. Replaced the sofa with a recliner. Lots of rewiring involved as I removed much of what Airstream did and improved upon it.

Will keep you posted. We prefer boondocking. We are getting 4ea. 100W panels installed on the roof. Have had great experience using Honda EU2000 with previous trailer (SOB), and still plan to travel with it as a back-up. This is our first experience with any type of solar, so we’re pretty excited to use/learn more about it.
I just put 240 A/H Viper with 400 watts of Obsidian solar, Victron controller MPPT 100/30, temp monitor, BVM 712, 12 volt boost converter, PD 9200 .
Is it working? How's yours? I have not been boondocking since..duh!
We have been out (National Forest) for the last 7 days. Batteries have never been below 89%. Recharges really nicely during the day. I need to spend a little more time with the App to monitor Load, etc...but overall I’m really pleased. My generator hasn’t left the garage...love that.
