I had my panels in parallel. Changing them into series-parallel really increased the amps into the batteries. My voltage into the charge controller was too low. Increasing the volts increased my amps. Thanks a ton for these very useful videos!
Gosh it's my first time trying to figure it out it's so confusing I don't think I'm ever going to be able to figure it out and I need to so bad they cut my power off and I'm trying to figure out how to make this work
Holy hell...this may be the most informative watts/amps/volts video I've ever seen. I'm in the process of getting solar panels setup on my backyard shed and this video helped so much at understanding the wiring.
How could it still be confusing after the amazingly great way you’ve taught this. The combination of your succinct and accurate words alongside visuals was the best I’ve seen yet. Thanks for all the time you put to this.
Thank you - great informative video series. Maybe discuss the affect of the sun shading when hits the panels in "series" vs. "parallel" and then vs. "series/parallel" setups?
Wow I'm glad I hung around at least to listen to that you know I wasn't fully paying attention but I was letting it go on in the background to try to absorb as a supplementary video. I didn't know that anybody really spent the time to answer each and every question but I want to take you at your face that you do. That's kind of refreshing to have somebody actually go up and flat out say that you answer each and every question on occasion and I can't do that forever but either way that's admirable thank you I appreciate that. Id consult with you, even pay. But I don't want to waste your time, there are lost causes lol
Outstanding informational video Again! I reviewed this video 4 months ago, but it didn't sink in until I actually had the solar panels set up. I am humbled by your knowledge and help.
I have never seen a RUclips video with so many thousands of like so zero dislikes; that folks tells you something of the quality and clarity of this vlogger.
This series is fantastic! Some of the info you cover I already knew well, but I still fully enjoy watching. Even if you don't plan on doing any of this stuff yourself, if you own a solar system, you owe it to yourself to watch this series so you can at least understand what is going on with it. Great job Nate! Kudos!
Ok I have six 270watt 24v panels voc is 38.55v the lsc is 9.10 vmp is 31.47v the lmp is 8.58a max system voltage 1000vdc max system fuse is 15a my inverter is a mppt 5000w 48v the max pv array is 145vdc could you please send me a diagram of how to wire these panels the proper way please thank you
I was hoping you would address the function of the MPPT charge controller in how it coverts the surplus Volts into Amps and what the math is or how efficient the conversion is. Also, how the panels function when one panel is in shade and how that effects the output in V and A in Series vs Parallel.
@@EXPLORISTlife, I am very interested in this as well. No one has covered this info that I have found. Any update on the time frame for the video? Thanks so much
@@EXPLORISTlife I hope u also cover the difference in theory & practice of series/parallel... ie. Parallel = higher current = more losses (so less efficient) (& more expensive charge controller) also fatter wire = higher cost..! U should have mentioned it in this video as well... Otherwise it's the best I've seen on this topic...
Your are incredibly helpful and this is by far the best video out there I've researched for helping to understand how to not only connect panels but in the best way. I'm about to put together my 6 panels to my bluetti and I'm actually excited because I have much more confidence now from your very clear tutorials. Thank you so much!!!
I love ur way of explaining the dif panel configurations my question is when looking at the back of my 4 240w 37.2v panels i see 4 dif amp ratings im trying to figure out witch amp rating to go by 1. Maximum Power Current 7.89amps 2. Short Circuit Current 8.73amps 3.Maximum Serious Fuse 15amps 4. Minimum Bypass Diode 15amps when wiring witch amp rating u referring to ? thanks
Great videos. Which configuration would charge a battery fastest? For example, does wiring it with higher voltage but less amps result in slower charging due to lower amps, or does the higher voltage increase the speed of charging?
Basis what I have, connecting in series would charge the battery quick than connecting the panels in parallel, but make sure the your mppt is capable of handling
This is such a great resource video! I finally have a full grasp how volts and amps can be adjusted for different needs ... and I passed your test, too! You just helped me overcome one of my biggest hurdles... Thank you!
The only confusing thing about all of this is which one is best to charge your batteries? When living in the van, you’re using amps, and concerned with how many AH your bank has. Do you want to push the most amps into the battery, or the most volts into the battery? Nobody bothers to tell you which is actually preferred or which will charge your batteries to full faster. Could you please cover this?!
Howmuch power is pushed in the battery does not depend on the series or parallel configuration. Higher voltage (more in series) means lower Amps for fhe same total power, thus smaller gauge wires, but more expensive charge controllers as he explains. You can calculate the amount of current into the battery by the power of the solar array (as you saw in this video all configurations with 4 panels had 400W) by rhe nominal battery voltage. Cheers!
With series and mppt combo you get the max output of your panels with the added benefit of smaller wires. Higher voltage systems give you more of a return on investment. In my opinion.
@matthewjswider You want more Amps for charging! You only want your volts to be slightly higher than the battery you’re charging! If you have a 12v battery, you want a max of 13-14volts and between 3-40amps for charging, 3amp is slow charge, 10 amps is fast charge, and 40amps is rapid charge. Since most solar panels produce between 12-24volts, the charge controller sorts out the power differences and turns it into 13-14volts for charging. The closer you can get your solar panels to naturally putting out 14v and 10amps the less work your charge controller has to do and more efficient your system is
@Wayne-hs6gm I appreciate you wanting to help, but most of that is QUITE untrue. Please spend some more time in our solar basics playlists to learn more about system design so you can give more educated responses.
The information I needed in a clear understandable format. And points to my MPPT controller wanting/needing more voltage to operate more effectively. My challenge now becomes how to hook up panels in series that have the 2 pin SAE connectors. Without soldering wires or adding lots of adapters. Sure don't want to buy all new panels. Will run a scaled down experiment with a small number of adapters, testing the real world application of my series and parallel options before deciding on a final setup.
Hey, super Neuro divergent brain here. I was super confused at first on how to calculate your volts and amps when wiring in both parallel and series at the same time. But I realized that it’s a lot more simple than you explained it, or at least, that’s how it seems to me. Essentially, you just take the volts and amps of one singular solar panel times the number of sections that you have. It doesn’t matter how many panels are in each section. It only matters how many sections you have. If you have 6 sections, you times the Amps and volts by 6, if you have 4, you times each of them by 4
Sending a link to my professor at university , hope he learns how to teach like this! Clear diagrams, relaxed attitude and passionate about the topic . Inspiring . You can learn a lot from fellas like this chap .
You are a teacher, you have the imagination to understand what the uninitiated don't understand, and take them through it. Some of the very big names in this field don't have that imagination - so thank you! Now off to try and find the quizzes you have kindly made for us, so thank you once again. If anyone is going to lead me through this maze, I suspect it's you!
Thankyou . This cleared up a lot. Im building a off grid house system 240 volt . In Idaho so i want to use the most panel as possible for the bad days of solar.
Awesome Nate, I think I can do it. I’m going to enjoy upgrading my current solar system on my 4wd and camper trailer… drawing what I’ve got while watching your videos helps make clearer what I need to do.
Thank you! This finally made things clear! I have all the parts for a small but expandable system but have been afraid to hook it up. Damaging that expensive charge controller was my fear. 100/50 like you showed. Now, the next chance I get, I have the knowledge to install the system correctly. Thank you again!
Hi, Nate, I'm Noel. Great vid series man, thanks a heap, from Australia (a very sunny place!!) I'm wiring up a 1050Watt system (3 x 350 W) on the roof of my Toyota Coaster bus/motorhome, so it seems I have no option but to go series wiring (because of the odd number of panels... did I get that bit right?) and wear the cost of the more expensive controller unit. Aaaah well... such is life (on the road)! But think of all that free rent!!! She'll also be running on deep frier oil. Australia's a BIIIIIIG land! And we love our fish'n'chips. Friers are cookin' from one end to the other.... and people are generous. The go-to oil here in OZ is Cottonseed... excellent bio-fuel. Thanks again, Nate. Very helpful, mate.
This is the best solar channel I have found.. Now I know how to maximize my victron 100/50 mppt.. Running 400 watts of solar to it nowbut about to add 600 watts more to it.. Thanks so much..
Thanks! :) Keep in mind that the "50" part of the 100/50 is referring to the charge controller OUTPUT amps. Not the input amps. 1000 amps pushed into a 12V battery bank will be somewhere in the 83 amps range; so the 100/50 will be a bit underpowered for that many watts.
EXPLORIST life - DIY Campers thanks i had that mixed up.. So it looks as if i can only hook up 700 watts of panels into it. Can You run 2 charge controllers on one 8 battery 12 v bank or would it be better to split the bank and controllers and have 2 separate solar arrays? thanks
I have to say - as someone who didn't "get" electricity as an A-Level student (40 years ago!)... this particular video explains this topic really well! The best explanation I've seen so far! Brilliant! Thank you for explaining this so well! :-)
I really liked how you explained this, but I have just learned that there is a schematic to the panels which includes max. power, max. volts, short circuit current and open circuit voltage. When you were giving your diagram at the begging, which are you using. My 100 watt panels don’t have the same numbers that you used and I understand that can be important. None of my numbers were whole numbers and the multiplication didn’t work. Thank you!!
I will not forget this vedio for sure. I have understood this thing which is next to impossible for me. And English is not my first language.10000000volts*500000amps thumbs up
This is a great video! Your way of explaining the way(s) to wire the panels is by far the best I have seen! You explained the methods very very clearly. Thank you so much for making this outstanding video!
OMG! You made everything so understandable and your wiring diagrams made it so easy to follow. I have gone to several sites and, while they were quite knowledgeable you made it so understandable. You are a great teacher. Thank you.
This is easily the best explanation I’ve seen to date on amps and volts for connecting solar panels. Wish I watched this before I bought four 200 watt panels with each panel running 12 amps into a Ecoflow delta max that can only handle 10 amps. Thanks!
Just got a solar generator and some solar panels and started an education process beyond flipping on a light switch or jump-starting a car. Found your videos, and you have really brought me out of the shadows in using this system for emergency use. You have a very simple way of bringing a lesson that can be followed and understood. Keep up the good work...yes I did subscribe.

Thank you so much for what you do and for sharing I wish I had seen this video before I attempted to wire my solar array myself as I thought I was doing it right it was incorrectly wired for over a year and then suddenly last week at blew my 150 volt Flex Max 80 overcurrent I have the sense learn to rewire it correctly and it's done but now I have to figure out how to get my Flex Mac 80 repaired this video really helps cement the foundation of learning the math behind wiring thank you so very much
Hey Buddy. I love the videos. Detailed explanations and you answer what viewers are going to ask lol. Your pace of talking is almost as calming as the BBC Planet Earth guy too lol. I did want to mention that I've tried your super helpful charge controller calculator. Thank you for creating it! I don't know if you have an amazon affiliate link for the recommended item, but no matter which item the calculator recommends the link seems to go to the same 75v/10A controller. Cheers
Ahh... the vendor changed up their product page. The link USED to go a page with all of the charge controllers on one page. I'll make an adjustment. Thanks for the heads up.
Dude thank you so much for these examples. Specifically the price comparison and the 6 panels setup as that’s exactly what I’m doing and I bought the 150/60 controller, but have time to return it and save money with the less expensive controller!! Thanks again!
I love the way you explain things. I understood every concept you laid out. You have a real talent for this kind of stuff. A great way to break things down and uncomplicate them. Thank you, your going to save me time and money!! =)

Thanks heaps for making this series currently fitting out a 2015 VW transporter with no prior knowledge and have found your videos really helpful.
Thank you so much for sharing this great knowledge! I saw it as an ample opportunity I wouldn't toy with

Hey Buddy. I love the videos. Detailed explanations and you answer what viewers are going to ask lol. Your pace of talking is almost as calming as the BBC Planet Earth guy too lol. I did want to mention that I've tried your super helpful charge controller calculator. Thank you for creating it! I don't know if you have an amazon affiliate link for the recommended item, but no matter which item the calculator recommends the link seems to go to the same 75v/10A controller. Cheers
Ahh... the vendor changed up their product page. The link USED to go a page with all of the charge controllers on one page. I'll make an adjustment. Thanks for the heads up.
Dude thank you so much for these examples. Specifically the price comparison and the 6 panels setup as that’s exactly what I’m doing and I bought the 150/60 controller, but have time to return it and save money with the less expensive controller!! Thanks again!
Also it doesn’t show on the diagram but do I need a fuse for this setup? Thanks again!!
Great video! I didn't place the details in consideration.your correct. Thanks.
Thank you for taking the time to help us.
