My name is Brandon and i'm located in Kentucky.I apologize in advance for this will be a long post. I just purchased a new Renogy Premium Kit. 200W 12V system (100W sach Panel) with a Rover 20a MPPT charge controller. The kit came with 20ft 10AWG AK cables, 2ft 10AWG fuse cable, 8ft 10AWG tray cables, 10a in-line fuse and 20a ANL fuse. Also purchased is x2 Renogy Deep Cycle Hybrid Gel Battery 12V 100aH. Plus a Renogy 2000W Inverter. My question is how should i set this system up? My solar panel cables are going to have to be 35ft long for the location of where I need to put the panels. I will have to buy the 16ft tray cables that renogy offers to reach the long distance, and because of the location of the batteries (outside) I think i will beed to purchase 4/0 AWG inverter cables from the battery to the inverter for the distance will be about 20ft. Would you recommend a Series connection from the solar panels to the charge controller because of the long distance or Parallel and the battery bank configuration in series to make 24v and keeping the amps the same or a Parallel connection. I will only be powering 3 lights that are 60 watts each, a 20" LCD tv and my interest for no more than 6 hours a day.
