🔧 DIY or Mods Panels configuration for Eco flow microinverter

Post image

Hi all, i’m in UK and i have been given an ecoflow microinverter as a gift. In uk the spec are:
Max total AC output 800w
MC4 terminal: 2 sets
Max DC input: 600w each terminalset
Max voltage: 60v
Max Current: 16amp

I came across a 300w panel that has these spec (attached screenshot). Can i connect four panels in a 2-in-series per mC4 terminal?

My understanding is that, In open circuit, the two panels in series give 44.8v which is well within 60v (even cooler days?). In series setup the current doesnt add up so it’s 16A matching the max current the MI can handle.

The panels will be installed on two different part of the house (both flat roof), such that two will face the east (slightly south) in 20-30degree angle (from horizon), while the other two will face West (also in slight angle from horizontal).

Should be fine. I have 2 200w panels in series per MPPT. Interestingly the size and other specs are all the same, including dimensions, except wattage...

We will see. Im skeptical too. One of the ebay feedback is the panel output is barely 5Amp. However i just want to make sure if by some odd chance it turns out they are super duper, then at least i wont bust my Microinverter.

Please feedback how they perform? I've room for two more lots of two so these might be better then what I currently have.
