Im looking to connect 6 Boulder panels to yeti 6000x. Currently I have 4 panels plugged into 4 way splitter that then connects to station. In order to up that,what is the best method to do so without exceeding the voltage limit? Is is to create 3 sets of 2 panels and plug those sets into the splitter?

Thank you in advance

    Hello @Stonerseanm03 ,

    Which Boulders do you have? the 100, 100i, 100 Briefcase, 200 Briefcase, or 50? A short answer without knowing exactly which panels you are using would be to NEVER use series combining with the X series Yeti. Please contact our customer support with more details for a more exact answer.

    Boulder 100 non-i. If they can't go in series, what would be the use of being able to put them in series?

    Hello @Stonerseanm03 ,

    The 100i panels are able to chain in series as they were designed for the 4000 Pro. This is why you don't want to chain in series. If you have the regular 100 then the regular 4x 8mm combiner will chain in parallel and you will be fine.
