Looking for good information on how to make sense of the information on the panels spec sheet and how it will correlate to a 48v battery bank.

    Can you also tell us a bit more about your planned system?

    Grid Tied or Off Grid or hybrid GT+OG battery back up system?

    Any specific hardware you are looking at (different controllers have different solar array configuration requirements).

    What type of battery (if using batteries), roughly near which major city  (amount of sun, temperature range).
