Perry, I agree and 500W tends to be the point to give more consideration to serial for wiring loss. Serial advantages for me: Less cost with 24V panels, didn't want to upgrade later, less roof space and easier installation.

Another factor is serial panels with bypass diodes which most panels have results in better shade tolerance than parallel.
My 750W serial 24V panels with MPPT controller cost $100 more than parallel 12V panels with PSW controller in 2014.
