Solar panels in series increases voltage.
Parallel increases current.
To increase voltage and current make sets of series solar panels and then connect them in parallel.

Sure. I just have to order some copper wire.
Wondering what kind of wire I should purchase.
I want some good stuff.
I have more cells now, Made two of these panels.
All together it should max out to 300 volts.
