    Rhino Rack Pioneer Platform (On a JKU) Thoughts before buying (also version 5 vs 6)

    I want a low profile platform for my 4 door wrangler hard top. It's not for a RTT, but I'd like to run a rigid solar panel, traction boards, star link mini antenna, and maybe some roto-pax containers. I'm looking at the Rhino Rack Pioneer 5 platform with backbone system. $800 for everything...

    ...with a PowerStation rather than just a battery. It has the output voltage boosted to 42V to allow rapid charging of PowerStation through the solar input ports.

    Solar design review

    Anyone interested in evaluating this diagram as I am second guessing a few things and just need to know if you see anything wrong. After thinking that I had this licked, I watched a video about battery efficiency, hung my head and went back to the drawing board. The specifics I am curious...
