im going to be up sizing my solar panel array i have right now a grape
solar 105 watt mon. panel i would like to buy the renogy 100 watt 2 pack
solar panels from amazon and use the multi thingy to connect them all up in
parallel the open circuit volts on the grape solar is 21 something it came
out to be about a .7 volts difference would that effect my solar charge
controller to have these 2 different kinds of panels hooked up like this,
they are both rated for a 12v system but the renogy has a higher open
circuit

Cost per watt from China is 31 cents to 55 cents US dollar.
One container can bring 640 300 watt panels in 2500 $ to US port

So when you converted the system into a 24 volt system would that be
suitable for charging two 12 volt batteries? Or are two 12 volt batteries
still considered a 12 volt system?

nice video sir but I think you have to practice safety, connect first your
bare wire to the charge controller then the MC4 connector. What if you have
to wired 8 modules in series connection? voltage will be multiplied and if
you fail it is enough to damage your equipment or electrocution will take
place and even cause to death.

If i want to connect four(4) panels in pararell, then to the charger and
further
to the battery set, how many MC4Y’s will i need?? i think should be 4
correct?
thanks for the video and the advice!

I have 2 batteries each 250 volts. I have 8 batteries 12 volts. How can I
connect both panels to have 12 volts out in a way to charge my 8 batteries
12 volts?

if you have 24v coming from to two 100w solar panel, do i have to use 24v
battery and not 12v?

How many 12 volt 100 watt solar panels in a parallel connection can be used
with a 30 amp charge controller? Nice video. Thanks.

I now have 2 solar 158 watts conected in series 24v. I would like to buy
another panel however I don’t seem to be able to find another with 158
watts, so there are still 160 watts available. would I still get at least
158 watts out of this? or would it bring down or raise wattage of the other
2?

do we need to put a diode in a parallel series?

My Renogy 100 watt solar panels are in series and parallel for 24 volts,
run to a Morningstar tristar TS MPPT 45 amp. charge controller, charging a
12 volts battery bank. can see them at Raphael Diy you-tube. Raphael

Thanks for the vid, but if you connect the solar panels to the to a charge
before the batteries, wont that damage the charge controller?
