I am using 2 panels in series on a small temporary 12v system because Midnite Solar recommends only 2 for 12v. But I have 3 in a line on the side of a shed.They are vertical so their output is way down from optimum.But for now thats the way it is. If I wanted to use the 3rd panel in series( and go 24v ) and thru the 30 amp KID controller and into a 12v LiFePo .....is there a way to approach that? I don't mind buying a DC to DC box if needed because I could make use of it later I think..if that would help...what do you think?
