If billr says it can be done near the main panel, then it can. It certainly would negate the need for a longer remote display connector wire as I had to have. Not sure I even considered it, just focused on the storage compartment--should have thought more about it.
I think billr also changed some of the loads on the panel to even out the distribution of power throughout the trailer--DRV puts way too many high-draw appliances on the same leg of the 50amp feed. This would help to allow more appliances to be run at the same time if you end up having breaker tripping when running both ACs and the micro, etc.
