Two "home panels*" or 3-6 RV panels? *(Talesun/Bistar)

[chaostactics]

I've been looking at getting panels and have been seeing "RV" panels from renogy and the like for around $1/watt. I was looking at 6 x 100 watt panels or 3 x 200w.

However some Talesun / BiStar (new panels) have come up for sale near me for $280 per for 360w panels.

I'm going to be running a victron 100|50 solar charger and 3x100aH LifePo battery bank.

Would I be better off with these panels. I can't really find reviews on these panels.

Attached are the specs for the panels.

those 1/2 cell mono's are just fine, you will have to connect them in parallel, series will be too high of a Voc for that controller

the main issue with panels of that size is roof real estate. measure your free space and verify you have sufficient room for panels and brackets etc before you commit..
