(2) 12V Solar Panels....Series or Parallel?
I have (2) 140w 12V panels. The Bogart Engineering solar controller can operate on 12V or 24V input. Is there any advantage or disadvantage to wiring the panels in series for 24V rather than parallel ...

keep them parallel , its the only way that is sensible with PWM controller
if you go series the amps will be cut in half, voltage to the controller will double, and the controller will knock it down to 14 for charging
you will loose power IF you go series
