Yup that's right. Only addition would be to put the solar panels ground on the shunt with everything else so you can monitor charge current.



as for the gauge, test to see if the one you currently have will do charge current. mine won't. yours, may. if not, should be able to put a second one reversed into the shunt like you're saying. Label em accordingly to be nice to future you.

Yep, thats exactly how the shut on my cruiser is wired up, and that can monitor input from both alternator and solar, as well as discharge rate from anything thats earthed either to main return lines or to the bodywork but draws from that aux battery

What about drawing your LPG directly out of the vehicles cylinder instead of a secondary cylinder?

Im laughing my arse off at the idea of 16 deg being too hot to paint... Over here in Aus our paint mostly has warnings about not using it below 10 degrees and not to paint if the surface or air temp is hotter than 35 degrees.
