- enough to know i shouldnt touch things i know nothing about ....
What are the dangers of 200w of solar through a 165w mppt please?
would it be an issue re safety, or just be an issue in not getting the full amount of power being produced?
i have a Votronic duo Mpp 165 and am trying to source solar panels that will fit in the spaces i have available - which isnt a lot, so i am having to go for 2 separate panels. i want to get the maximum amount of solar i can get on the roof but dont want to do anything that is unsafe.
My thought process is that if i ever upgrade my MPPT then i can harness the additional power being produced without changing the panels, what i dont want to do however is 'blow up' or damage the MPPT or any wiring - which will be inside the van.
Thanks
