question

Hi Electrichi01, you will be able to use the PVs either in parallel or serie. If you are going to use them for a RV / Van life, I 'll suggest using them in parallel, in case one is partially shaded, so your installation won't be too much affected by the shadow (loss of production).

You don't mention what kind of batteries you're going to use, Lithium or AGM / Gel ? Serie or Parallel connexion ? Anyway your mppt is able to manage both of them. I'll suggest you to add a BMV-712, so you can check the status of the battery bank.

Hello Michel

Agreed that series or parallel would be a good approach.

Lithium iron phosphate for sure for all of their benefits of discharge and weight as well as cycles.

There are a plethora of brands that look appealing today for different reasons, like space/dimensions, price and user feedback. I've noticed the trend where some manufacturers are giving the individual batteries the voltage via their own app to look and see the health of them.

The goal was to output at 12V dc. Yes, the BVM-712 and the app will compliment the feedback loop for battery voltage nicely.

Thank you Michel!
