Re: Hola! My official introduction - 2002 White SMB EB50 7.3

Is it totally straight? Because mine is smaller tubing I really didn't notice it untill you pointed it out.

Not totally. Off a little but most likely you'd have to point it out. Day and night though when compared to before.

If I had to do it all over again I'd go smaller tubing, low profile and expanded metal over the slats for weight consideration and sleeker look.

If you wire in series you'll double the voltage (17v to 34v) and burn out your solar controller (max 30v). Wiring in parallel will double the amperage (8a to 16a) but that's ok since the controller can handle up to 25amps.

Positive to positive, negative to negative.
Is this what can be done? I'm having only one panel installed and if it works great in Wisconsin I might add another. I want to be able to connect positive from one panel to positive of second, then neg to neg, without adding another set of wires to inside of van.

Speaker photo, but same idea.

thx for advice to newbie.
