Done installing all the panels. Over a period of 3 years, I have added solar. Started with (2) 180 watt panels. In 2012 added (1) 300 watt panel, and then this pass weekend. Added the last panel 280 watt. This last panel cost me $230.
All panels can be raise for winter.
All panels are high voltage, 40 volt no load and 35 volt load.
For 3 years I have been using a controller made by Biz Products. So far no problem. The link to my install is below. I calculated at 70% efficiency this provides about 700 watts continuous.
