Hello,
I've got 3 panels used recently:
Nominal power 380w
Isc 10.50a
Voc 45v
Vmpp 37v
I've also got another panel, 310w/32v/10a
I'm interested in building a pretty simple 12v or 24v system off it to run a 1000w inverter for running a 115v deep freezer pulling about 125w on average.
I'm interested in the Victron MPPT charge controllers, but it seems their calculator often overestimates my needs. I don't mind if I overshoot what a MPPT can take power wise. I live on the north side of mountain with darker winters.
If ran these 4 panels in series, could I get away with something like a Victron 100/50?
It's my understanding if I'm peaking W over the nominal PV power it isn't an issue, and my current in series should be under 60A. Or am I off base on any of my suggestions above, e.g. I should not run all 4 of these in series, etc.
