Which way did you set it up??
Welcome to the world of RV solar! I'm glad it's working for you. You should only need one controller, but it has to be rated to handle the output of both panels. Without knowing the specs of your controller, I can't say whether or not it would be adequate. That isn't to say two controllers won't work. In fact, they will, but two controllers cost more, and require additional wiring.KodiakJack said:Ok folks, I grabbed this tonight. $160CAD for 2 40w panels, 2 controllers, etc. each weighs 15 lbs. so no worries with the weight. Question: if you had a ?two of everything? pack like this, would you hook each up to the battery separately? Or combine them through one charge controller?
