I have 24 100W Kyocera panels that will be grid tied with a Sunny Boy 2500. Is it feasible to add more panels and inverter to this setup or better to ditch the whole thing? I'm thinking about an electric vehicle and would like to have more production

    Keep the existing system and add a new array + GT inverter+AC Branch Circuit?

    The 100 Watt panels tend to cost more money and may be difficult to mix+match with new panels+GT inverter.

    You might be able to sell the "12 volt panels" (Vmp~17.5 volts) to people that want them for their 12/24 volt battery charging systems (and buy new >200 Watt panels for less $$ per Watt).
