Just got back from out cabin in the OK mountains and while up there reconfigured my solar setup. Although I am still running 12V I reconfigured the panels from 6 in parallel to two 3 panel series strings in parallel. I went from only 300-400 watts (~ 20 V OC) indicated on the MPPT controller to 500-600 (~60 V OC) watts and even noticed spikes over 600 watts! I had no idea... I am assuming that the wattage indicated on the controller display is computed from the charge going into the batteries since I can see no way to get that much wattage out of the panels.
Just thought I'd share this experience.
