Thanks Bob! I used your promo to snag a couple of those 400w panels. A quick question, with the Pecron 2000LFP, could you run 4 of those SP037 400w panels? The total max voltage would be 90.6 but the wattage (in theory) would be over the 600w max input. If I was able to achieve 80% efficiency, it would be a solar input of 640w (80% efficiency of 400w x 2 panels). Would the Pecron just accept 600w? Is it safe to over watt your system? My goal is to fast solar charge my system in an emergency by maximizing the input. Or would it be better to run the two Allpowers 400w plus two additional 200w SP033 panels? This would also keep me under the Pecron's 95 max voltage but at 80% efficiency, it would only generate 480w per MPPT input. Do you see what I mean? In short, if you already had two of the Allpowers 400w panels and you wanted to maximize the solar input of your Pecron 2000, which other Allpowers panels would you buy? 🙏
Watts and amps is nothing to worry about because the system stops any power over what it can not handle from coming in. We love over paneling systems !!!!! HOWEVER, you can NEVER go over the VOC (voltage open circuit) of any system, EVER !!!!! Right now, we have 1,600 watts of panels going into the 1,200 watt max ports of the e3600lfp :) and the e3600lfp cuts off the power coming in at 1,200 watts :) Now, being that I said that, the e2000lfp sometimes had some some trouble bringing inything over 80v (at least ours did, until we upgraded the cheap MPPT boards inside)
@@RamblinBobReviews That is good to know. I had a gen1 but it was returned due to it being faulty and the 2000LFP i have now is the same one that Pecron displays on their website. So keeping the VOC under 95, in mind (as per Pecrons specifications) you're saying it would be better to run 4x400w panels (90.6v on each MPPT input) then it would be to run 2x400w and 2x200w (89.7 on each MPPT input) since the VOCs are almost identical and you might as well try to max out the wattage getting 600w on each MPPT input? So that would be 800w of panels per input to achieve 1200w of charging. Or would you not push the VOC that close to the max limit?
That is what we are doing on the e3600lfp, not the e2000lfp.... The reason that we are doing that is because it is a much bigger input on the e3600lfp. 1,200 watts x 2 @ 20a And the e2000lfp only has.... 600 watts x 2 @ 15a You have to make sure that you balance the system the best way for your situation (everybody is different) We never like to push the voltage that high so you have lots of safety room :) We can run all the way up to 150v on each port on the e3600lfp, but we are only running at 80v input :) Try a few different setups and take notes ;)

You are so welcome!

You have to make sure that you balance the system the best way for your situation (everybody is different)
We never like to push the voltage that high so you have lots of safety room :)
