It seems like there should not be that much voltage drop. Are there more grounds or am I fighting a losing battle trying for full voltage? Also I am noticing that the fan doesn't run on the converter. Its a WFCO 9865.

6 AWG battery cable will loose approximately 2 volts in 30 feet of wire.. and that 30 feet is total of both directions.. Say you have a run of 30 feet for the positive cable and say 10 feet from converter to chassis ground of 10 feet... that is a total run of 40 feet...
