Well I installed my system this past weekend at our cabin.  I ran 10awg quality multistrand low volt lighting wire from my panel to the charge controller.  The total run was about 65 feet and I have zero voltage drop in the run, zero!  I had my fiance' on one end yelling from the controller and myself on the panel with a multimeter and they were the same everytime. Woohoo!...having a/c power at the flick of a switch sure was a nice change from firing up the generator all the time.
