2022 22MLE Solar and Power Systems Upgrades

[2ndTimeAround]

Hello,
We are new to solar and purchased our 2022 22mle in October and it came with 165w panel and a 25a converter.

My question is can we just upgrade our panels to give us more wattage or do we have to upgrade the converter also?

If we can just upgrade the panels how high can we go with this 25a converter?

Thanks

The manual for the solar controller is here: https://cdn.accentuate.io/6641527586...7097014132.pdf

Based on the specs (snip below) to get the most from your configuration I'd suggest an upgraded solar controller if you want to add one or more panels. The ideal is to match the current panel (otherwise there is a performance hit). It's possible to add a 150W panel (which will degrade your 165W panel to the 150W's maximum output) but not sure I'd do that.

There's a lot to this subject...not sure how much technical detail you're interested in reading. Check out TucsonJim 's Solar 101 presentation in this channel's Reference Material section for the basics.
