Four 100/50 Charge Controllers working together?

So here is my setup

Cerbo GX

Smart Shunt

4 MPPT 100/50 each with (2) 340 watt panels attached to each

All cables on the output side of the controllers are the same length.


Is there a best practice setup to have these controllers work together as one unit?

hi @rjoustra Smartnetworking may be an interesting option. Makes for some good bedtime reading. Also, search the forum as there has been some discussions on the topic.

If they have the same settings are the minor differences going to make a whole hill of beans?

I have 4 far bigger MPPT's in parallel so long as they all turn on in the AM, I am unconcerned if one turns off 10 mins early.
