I am in the process of putting solar on my MH. I have 2-180 watt panels with a 40 amp mppt controller.
Charging 4 225 amp 6volt batteries.
What will I gain by going to 4 180 watt panels.
(A)Faster recovery on batteries
(B)better recovery on cloudy days
(C)Nothing when conditions are optimal
The 4 panels would be series parallel
The 2 panels probably won't matter which way they are wired
Will be running 10 gauge wire to controller as it should only be 20 amps from panels and the controller will only take the 10 wire
thanks Bob
