Hello everyone, this is my first post, I'm having a bit of confusion, so here we go, my system is, 4x 110amp batteries, (2nd hand old ) epever 40a, 4x 235 panels, now as i dont know much, i connected my panels ++++, and -----, at the controller, I get 30/34v and around 0 - 30+ amps, it all works fine, as I see it, Now, I went to look at a friend's, same sort of set up, but the controller is the newer model, and only 3 x 235w panels, but here's my confusion, the panels are connected +- +- +-, at the controller, it reads around 150v ( sorry never got to see the amps, it was pulling), I live in Greece, sun is mostly availble , so heres, what's confusing for me
1. Is the 2nd set up ok?
2. Is it better the 2nd way?
3. In the winter, it can be cold and cloudy, with out breaks of intense sun, , will this be to much power , for the controller to handle, ?
What I'm thinking is, can I connect, 2×2 panels +-, then connect , them 2 together ++ --, to the controller? My epever can handle 100v, where as the newer model can handle 150v.
As a summery, to my question, on cloudy days, I don't charge much, and wonder is there a better way?
I'm sorry if ,non of this makes much sense, but I have to learn from somewhere , and ask questions, I'm only sorry I found your forum ?, thank you for your time reading this suoer confusing thread, im just super confused.
Thanks Craig
