Solar Growth question....

Thomas

I just got a deal on a 210 watt 12v panel that I added to my array for a total of 440 watts now. I have it all going directly to a Xantrex c-35, batteries and another c-35 load controll for my grid tie inverter. I have a independant cooling fan atteched to my grid tie inverter to keep it at 100'F, it maxs' out at 105'F-106'F, and fluctuates from 3Ato 18A load DC daily now, no real problems.
For Future Reference..
Are there acceptable threshholds for combining panels in series? [i.e.-to meet inverter start up...]
my 3 40 watt panels are it appears to be 1/2 5x5 cells 40 watts per panel 3 panels
my 60 watt panels and 210 watt panel all seem to be 3x6 @1.8Watt...
what would happen if I were to string all 6 panels together for the voltage sum?[12x6=72]
I am only asking for financial planning purposes, I can string these together for my very next step of 24 volts with my current inverter.
golly,..that sunnyboy 2000 looks nice....!!I would like to start feeding it panels...

Solar Growth Question

Thru endevoring on google etc, I have come to the coclusion that I will not pursue voltages over what my current inverter handles[30.5]I am going to purchase one more 40Watt to make 2 80watt 24 volt input, and eventually another 210 12v for 4 24 volt inputs[+ the two 60watt panels]. I would like to string them together though only really afraid of damaging the investments, not only a lower performance.:grr
