    I wasn't planning on increasing solar. The unit max is 600 watts. I'd have to buy all new panels.

    Jacckery 1000 and 24volt panel

    Quick question. If I have the jackery 1000 and purchase a 24 volt 200 watt solar panel will it work? Curious because I know the max it will charge is 30 volts and I believe 24 volt panels are like 31 or 32 volts. Thank you.
