    Hello @Tahoemike ,

    We are currently out of stock of the two cables needed but you can also find them online, generally at Amazon or a website that makes custom cables such as PowerWerx.com. You would need an MC4 2 to 1 Parallel Connector as well as an MC4 to 45 Amp Anderson connector.

    can I connect these in series rather than parallel?

    Hello @Tahoemike ,

    We do not recommend using series connections when chaining panels into our Yeti X Series as it is very easy to exceed the 50V upper limit on the internal charge controller. Additionally, the optimal voltage for the charge controller is the 20-30 V range which all of our panels, including the 100i panels, are rated at.
