THOR #5723
I am running three parallel strings of two panels in series on my fiver. My panels are 36 volt panels, so each series string can potentially produce 72 volts. I have a Magnum PT-100 charge controller that needs high voltage like this to work properly. Each panel is 235 Watts for a total potential wattage of 1410. This set up works very well for me.

As stated above, as long as your charge controller can handle the higher panel voltage and still output 12 volts to your batteries (which is what MPPT controllers are meant to do) the biggest problem to watch for is potential shading issues.
