I'm not a beginner but hope to someday become one . . .
In any case, I have added equipment to my fifth wheel including 2 paralleled Lithium 12V batteries, Victron Inverter, DC to DC converter, and a Victron MPPT 100/50 solar controller.
In my excitement of putting things together, I purchased 4 solar panels at 200w per. Now I've determined that I have too much panel for the controller. Would I be smarter to upgrade the controller to a larger size or can I get another 100/50 and operate it in parallel to the existing one to charge the single battery bank?
Thanx,
Jim
