I call em 6A panels. it ain't no 7A+ panel.
Just like I call my 3.85A Isc panel a 4A panel. it makes 4A at times! It don't make Isc no more, that would be 50% (C/2) and the batt just can't take that by the time the sun is right.
The OP has 'special' panels, 20v vs my 17v! your 'relationship' is bogus for such panels, and they likely will never make 120 watts!
Right, they are different. 40 cells too.
Since you are the guy who provided that nifty figure 8 Dec chart, I knew you must be correct.
BTW that Dec chart does show the Southern Hemisphere is fatter than the Northern. Our Astro instructor said the Earth is "pear-shaped" which is how that Dec chart goes.
