Unobstructed Sunlight
Solar panels function through the interaction of many individual
cells. Keeping this in mind, solar results can be greatly affected
with even the slightest obstruction to a single cell of the panel.
When selecting a location for panel placement, keep this in
mind. Make sure the panel is free of any debris, or any shadows
created by things like tree branches, overhead structures, or any
other objects in the environment.
Safety Tips
The Kodiak is designed for use with all Inergy branded solar
panels. These solar panels will provide the best experience
possible. We do offer an adapter for third party solar panels, but
it is important to familiarize yourself with the wiring associated
with them and how to make them work with the Kodiak. As a
hard rule - all solar panels must be connected to the Kodiak (and
to each other) in a PARALLEL wiring configuration. The most
common solar panel connector on the market today is the MC4
connector. Although this connector can be wired in a PARALLEL
configuration (given the right components), it is easily wired in
a SERIES configuration that will cause permanent damage to the
Kodiak, as well as a risk of bodily harm or a fire. Pages 14 & 15 in
this manual illustrate the correct method for using this type of
connector.
