There are a couple of Iron rules (ruls that apply always and can't be broken) that come into play here.
# Light conductors result in inefficiency in low voltage DC electrical systems.
Unfortunately the majority of manufacturers and sellers cut costs by using light cable.
fortunately most times this is easy to fix.
# Voltage regulators and filters are best and most efficient located close to what they supply.....and the closer the better.
Often regulators are mounted in less than efficient locations because it is cheaper, easier, or seems more convienient.
This too can be easily fixed and sometimes at little or no cost.
These two rules apply to a very wide range of situations and from very small electronics to huge electrical systems.
You can improve the efficieny of just about every item in your DC elecrcal system by applying these rules.
bks testifies to this.
