That's about a $10 difference from the $85 bifacial model that is also on sale. I'm not sure how that nets out between the two.

I recently bought four of the bifacial design and have been pleased with them. I think the peak performance I've seen from a series parallel combination of the four was about 700 watts out of 800 theoretical max, but it has been typically less than that.

Been around high 500/low 600 for me

can I ask a dumb question about solar panels in series to increase voltage?

if solar panels have diodes to prevent inbound voltage from damaging them, how do they then function in series to increase voltage?

Bypass diodes are connected in parallel with sections of the panel, not in series with the panel's output. So when there's full sun hitting your panel, the diodes don't do anything (the current flows through the cells as designed). It's when there's shade on part of the panel, that the diode provides an alternate path for the electrical current, allowing it to "bypass" the shaded section. And since you're wiring in series, your voltages are added up as you mentioned.

You mean bypass diodes, but you're describing blocking diodes. How bypass diodes work is described in the link above. Blocking diodes are (optionally) used when connecting solar panels in parallel to prevent backflow from unshaded panels or poor charge controllers

if I consume 65 kWh a week, how many solar panels do I need? any good sites to get me started on this?

Directly facing the sun and properly angled? How hot is it? How are you measuring? There will be loss at the MPPT and if you're using an EcoFlow or something the numbers shown are after that loss. Figure at least 1-2%.

These panels lose 90% effectiveness with slight shading, like just an inch of shadow covering the edges.

I'm not surprised. That's exactly what I get from one of my Eco Worthy 200 N panels. In full Miami sun it dependably spits out a whopping 86 watts, even when optimized toward angle and everything else. It's brother manages 120 watts at peak.

Eco Worthy are the worst panels I've sampled, in 2.5 years with solar

These are crap. Have one on my boat, middle of the lake, no shade and direct sun never got more than 88w. Sent them back
