(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 ...

I am going to "Do" the toad before I depart to the south. Now that I have found "Locomotive Grade" cable the battery is going to be relocated to the trunk and it looks like a Sam's Club AGM might be in the offing. A hundred forty dollar 68 amp hour group 34 flooded or a 179 dollar group 31 AGM? Duh!
Out West, Sams Club has the $199 Johnson Controls 31C 100AH AGM(Energizer). That is what I use.
In the East is where you find the $179 Deka(Duracel). I wish I had this one.
