I keep getting feedback concerning blocking diodes on another forum. I can not locate panels that match my ordinal pair so I have to install a new panel panel string that is close. One pair is has a VOC of 21.4 volts and producing 5.5 amps. The second string has a VOC of 5.38 amps and producing 5.38 amps. These panels will lay flat on the top of my RVs. This rig spends most of its time at 40 + degrees north. I was told on this forum that I will get 50% production at best under these conditions. Am I making a mistake or is this feed back on diodes that I am getting important?
