DIY MC-4 Connectors- 2nd Photo Added
I suppose everyone knows about these except me until today, but in case anybody does not, here it is. There is a Male and Female version, so you need one of each to join your wires to the panel ...

How many inches of pigtail do these panels provide?
About 39 inches. Go to the right for drawing of the panel I just got. Same for the 255w panel I got a few months ago. The good thing with that is they can stick out from under the panel after you lay it down, so you can do your wiring hook ups after.

Side note--panel efficiencies are improving. Guy said they have a new way to cut the silicone so there is less waste and the cells fit together better so the panel can be the same area with more watts---If I got that right. This 275 at 17.8% is very close to the same size as the older 255 at 15.5%. I suppose that matters if you are doing a big array.
