I have 6 ea 320w panels (49.5v voc/8.6a isc) and 6 ea 205w panels (33.2 voc/8.36 isc). In the past I have used separate CC's for each string, but due to some re-wiring and re-location I need to try and minimize the cable runs.
So was thinking I would put all 12 in series. I know I will loose some wattage, but I think it will be minimal and worth the loss compared to the cost.
Volts = (49.5*6)+(33.2*6) = 496.2v (CC can handle 500v)
Amp = Lowest isc in string = 8.36a
Again, I know there will be some potential power loss, but its better then leaving all the 205w panels offline (~ 1kw/h).
