I hooked up my controller to my panels in series thinking it would work better. But each panel produces 115w at 17V… in series I don’t get above 170w but the voltage jumps to 40v
Is the voltage converter unable to trade that excess voltage for current?
In parallel I would exceed 15a, but it states that is an output limit on each output (load and battery). Can I put in up to 20a from the two panels in parallel?
Edit: I found most of the issue. I can only get 15a total output, half of which goes to the refrigerator. The other half is limited by peak voltage. The rest goes to waste. So 350w of panels will be overkill.
Now I just need to learn how to force it to go into bulk charging instead of float.
Thanks
