Hi Glen, It will depend on what the GVWR (gross vehicle weight rating) is of your trailer to determine which B&W 5th wheel to gooseneck adapter will work best for you. Fifth wheels and gooseneck trailers go off of pin weight instead of tongue…

OptiMate Portable Solar Panel for battery maintenance
OptiMate portable solar keeps batteries topped off while you camp or store your rig. The included controller blocks reverse flow, so no extra diodes, and it can stay connected even when the alternator is charging. Choose 10 Watt to maintain a single approximately 100 amp hour battery in storage, 40 Watt for larger banks or less sun, and 80 Watt to maintain an already charged battery (about 2 weeks from 50% in full sun); panels fit an SAE plug.
Yes, it can be left on while the alternator is charging. The controller has a diode system built in, so you don't need extra diodes to maintain isolation. Make sure the controller is in line between the panel and battery and your wiring follows the included polarity.
Yes—an 80 Watt OptiMate can maintain an already charged battery. From 50% in full sun it would take about 2 weeks to reach 100%, so it's slow for actual charging. If you want a charge in only a few days, a stronger kit is more realistic. Confirm compatibility with your cart's 48 volt system before connecting.
Use 10 Watt to maintain a single battery approximately 100 amp hour while in storage. Step up to 40 watts if the battery is larger, you have multiple batteries, or you struggle to maintain full sun. If your trailer has a solar plug, confirm it's an SAE port and match the connection.
Yes, it works well for keeping a 12V AGM battery charged during storage. It's not the fastest charge, so higher wattage speeds things up if you need more than maintenance. Park for good sun exposure and verify clean, tight connections to the battery.
