Ok, this is my dilemma. I have 2 Renogy 100 watt panels hooked up in parallel into my Rover 40A charge controller. I was given a 275 watt panel that I want to add to it. What I was thinking was hooking up the 2-100w panels together in series then adding the 275w panel with them in parallel. The two 100w panels are rated 18.9 Vmpp, 22.5 Voc, 5.75a Isc each, when doubled it comes out close to what the 275w panel is, which it’s spec.s are 31.0 Vmpp, 39.4 Vic, 9.58a Isc. Now would this work out Ok, be my best way of doing or would I be better off just tying the all together in parallel instead of the series/parallel route? What can I expect from all this, it’s hard to pass up a 275w panel. Thanks
