Hi, Very new to solar portable generators. I have a Bluetti AC180 that accepts Solar Input: 500W Max., VOC 12-60VDC, 10A. I also have 2 Elecaenta 120W Foldable Solar Panel - Nominal Capacity 120W, Maximum Power 18V, 6.6A (open-circuit voltage: 24~25V, short-circuit current: 7.2A) & 2 Bluetti PV120 Power: 120W Voltage at Max Power(Vmp): 19.6V Current at Max Power(Imp): 6.1A Open Circuit Voltage(OCV): 24.4V Short Circuit Current(Isc): 6.43A
My thinking is that I could connect all four panels, if I put the matched pair of panels in series, and then parallel connect those pairs to the AC180. This maybe a bad idea, which is why I am hoping someone with more knowledge/experience can share their expertise with me on this setup.
Thank you in advance for your time!
