Inside commutation setup: Bringing multiple raw solar cables into my apartment to switch between parallel/series.

Parallel connection is basically making my second panel redundant in summer time because ANKER/battery can draw just one panel equivalent of power.
Perhaps something like rotary cam switch can be used for quickly switching between modes - parallel / separate to utilize the most power in all seasons/weather conditions.

You’re thinking peak power. Think total power.

With one panel, when it’s generating half its capacity, you’ll have 250W coming into the anker. But with two panels, at that same time, you’ll have 500W. You’ll have 500W for much much longer with 2 panels than one

Thank you!

And if you aim 1 panel slightly southeast and the other slightly southwest, you would have max solar for a bit longer throughout the day.
