Solar cells, parallel vs series by imWACC02014-02-04 15:28:40
  Watts=Voltage*Amperage. by tonyz 2014-02-04 15:44:57
You need to increase voltage or amperage.

Either way you wire it, since the panels have fixed specs, it is going to balance out wattage wise.

example panel: 12v@1a = 12w.

So, if you have two of those, wired one way is 24v@1a (24w), the other way is 12v@2a (24w). Either way, as you can see, wattage remains a constant.

It all depends on the motor really. Cool kits BTW, my 4yo is asking for kit1. :)
