I set up a taylor dunn burden cart as a mobile solar generator with six 180 watt panels on top last year. regular 36v 6 x 6v lead acid batts.
Just built a trailer for it that has 4 x 180 watt panels, and can be connected via two sets of 5 panels. I've put each set of 5 in series ( over 105v) than run both parallel.
I can squeeze another panel on the trailer for a total of 5 on it, (11 panels total in system ) but it would throw the voltage out of whack.
Can I run the 6 panels on top of cart with one solar controller, and connect the 5 on the trailer to another controller, using the same battery bank on the cart?
