Solar Panels for Beginners: 60 cell vs 72 cell solar panels
We discuss the difference between solar panels that have 60 cells, or squares, and 72 cells. The 60 cell solar panels were originally designed for grid tie solar systems, but
thanks to MPPT solar charge controllers are now also used in off-grid solar systems. The 72 cell solar panels are also known as 24V panels, as they were designed to charge a 24V battery bank. With new codes and technology, they are now also being used in large grid tie solar systems.

How to hook up Solar Panels (with battery bank) - simple 'detailed' instructions
shows how to hook up solar panels (with a battery bank). simple instructions. home solar power station. very easy to put together. all you need is 1 or more batteries, an inverter, charge controller and a solar panel or panels. the following is for a 12 volt system. use one 'deep cycle' battery for every 2 to 6 amps your panels generate. (batteries like to be charged at this rate). a 12 volt 1 amp panel generates about 15 watts. you can use any solar panels. if you can't get the smaller panels then buy one larger one. (Kyocera sells an inexpensive 7-8 amp solar panel (135 watter)). that would go perfect with 2 deep cycle batteries. the six panels in the video are from harbor freight tools. i bought 2 three panel sets. they sell the panels in sets of three or individually. coleman sells similar panels. the batteries are from walmart. they are 'deep cycle' batteries. the charge controller is from fry's electronics. the inverter is from harbor freight tools. this system will provide all the 'free' power you will need to run tons of things around your house
