Presently we have 1240 watts of solar. adding 2 more mppt-60 controllers and probably 6 310 watt panels to the car hauler. then it will be complete. I want to call Morningstar and see what they think of having more watts than the controller can handle first. it's just I have a good deal buying the 310 watt panel at $238 each.
This is nice! I would like to know your set up i.e., parallel / serires or what did you do? What controller are you using to charge in 9 hours? I assume that is with full sun. Are your panels following the sun, or static? Do you have pictures?
