I am planning an upgrade to my RV solar power system. I presently have two NewPower 165 watt panels mounted on the roof of my camper. They are wired in series as a single sting with a rated PMax voltage of 35 volts and PMax amperage of 9.43 amps. These panels and MPPT charge controller feed a battery bank of four lithium iron phosphate batteries with roughtly 400 ah of storage capacity.
I'd like to add a second string of 110 watt SunPower flexible panels that can be deployed as needed. This string will have a PMax voltage of 36.6 volts and a PMax amperage of 5.9 amps.
Can I simply parallel these two strings into my Victron SmartSolar MPPT 100/50 Charge Controller?
