Question 2020.5 Mini Lite factory solar options?

I see in the “what’s new in 2020.5 models”, that they now offer roof top solar prep as an option. I have also seen a 190 watt solar option.

Has anyone seen any details on these options?

Thanks...David

Found this while looking at 2509's for sale.

This is a picture of the sticker they 'install' when you order the optional Roof Top Solar Prep.



Here is some info from the suppliers site on what is included:

Still not a complete picture...but, is progress. :-)

I have heard, third hand, that they run 10 gauge to the roof, and 8 gauge to the battery.
