    Charge Controller Help Needed

    The panels are going on a remote camp already wired for 12 volt with no shading at all. So I'd rather not switch to 24 volt. The run to the SCC is roughly 35-40 feet. Cabling was overkill so I'm not concerned about that. I was thinking about a parallel set up and using the 150/70 but wanted...

I have found a few online calculators but everyone makes me doubt the other. Hooking them up in series makes sense...
