I would rather have 15 volts with a lot of amps, than 20 volts with a weak amp supply.
Most nominally 12 volt panels put out 17 volts.
My panels are lower than most at 16.5 volts. The seller recommended doing series with an MPPT controller. I did follow that excellent advice.
Solar panels are considered to be constant voltage device. Higher voltage leads to less line loss (l% is great).
