So I am putting together a solar system and I am making 18v 60watt 3.5amp panels. I am trying to figure out if I should hook them up in series or parallel!
I understand what each does, increase amps vs volts, but I dont understand how I should calculate for the conditions.
I read that you need to produce 1.5x more volts than what you are charging. If this condition is true then I shouldnt need to hook them up in series. How does increasing my amps affect my charging potential? I guess on the flip side, when do I want to increase my voltage?
Sorry if these are basic questions!
