Hi All,
A couple questions on solar panels. I am looking to upgrade my PV array but I have questions on solar panels. I have 4x 100W Renogy Solar Panels. With a new MPPT controller I am able to run higher voltages from a better spot on my property.
I am looking to run:
- 1 Series of 4x Renogy 100W panels (400W series)
- 2 Series of 2x Canadian Solar 330W panels (have not bought yet) (660W per series)
Using Magnum PV calculator with the panel specs.
It showed that the renogy series would be outputting:
- VMP 75.6V at 25C, 89.2 at -35C
- PV current of 5.3
The Canadian Solar Series
- VMP 74.4V at 25C, 88.2 at -35C
- PV current of 17.8
Is there anything I should be aware of, or that I am missing when using mismatched series and combining them - mainly on the voltage mismatch? Looking to run the array into either a Midnite Solar 150 or Magnum PT 100.
Thanks,
