Subject: Solar Panel outdoor electrical connect

Hi folks:

Just finished putting together my solar panel, and MPPT controller setup.
My original plan was just to close the door on the wire, figuring the gasket
would form fit around the wire, but with 12gauge heavy duty wire, the door
is not going to close. So, now looking at outside plug-ins.  All of my
utility outlets are in use, so that's not an option.  I'm not completely
opposed to putting another electrical connector through the side wall of the
van, but would prefer something I can mount to the underside of the van with
a waterproof cover. Maybe under the sink cabinet? My connectors and
controller are currently behind the drivers seat.

Most everything I've seen are cigarette lighter adapters, and not sure they
can handle the higher voltage of a solar panel.  So, I'm sure I'm not the
first person to hook up solar to my van.  Any suggestions on electrical
connectors to get from inside to outside?
