Hi Jfet,
It might boil down to the poly panels having more diodes than the mono. I don't know the answer to that question.
My unisolar panels have diodes between every cell. They work extremely well but are, relatively speaking, huge. They also outperform in high heat situations and because I went with a parallel/series wiring for a controller input voltage of 33, do well by me. I followed the 125% capacity suggestion and so have lots of head room for cloud effects.
