Starting to look at panel configuration for my 5th wheel build and looking for input...
I will have a total of nine 210W panels. Here are the specs:
What is best and why? Series or parallel, or combination? Trying to determine what SCCs and other components I will need. I was thinking of sets of three panels, so that I could add them as I can afford to, but not sure that will work. Thanks in advance for any input!!
**Edit: my battery is around 900Ah DIY at 12V. Total 12V system. Also, I can drop to 8 panels if that makes it work better, but can't get more than 9 up there.**
