Newbie here! I've read several posts and don't really see an answer to my question, so figured I'd post here.
Looking to add some additional solar panels to our Montana HIgh Country RV. Our High Country has the 200i SolarFlex package with inverter that was factory installed. So, from the factory it came with a single 200 watt solar panel. Below is a URL with a diagram that was published by Keystone for this system.
The thing I'm really struggling with is what solar panel can I add to this. Looking at the panel in the diagram from Keystone, it appears this is a 24V 200 watt panel. I purchased a 12V 200W Renogy panel not knowing this was 24v (or so it appears). Since the new panel and existing panel are matched wattages, but different voltages, can I just hook these up in series? Is there any negative impact from doing this?
