Combine multiple OBSIDIAN® SERIES portable panels together in a parallel configuration to increase the available energy output with this 6” Y adapter with female to male ATP connectors.
Exactly what was needed
It works just like I expected. I ordered two OBSIDIAN® SERIES 100-Watt Portable Kit - Regulated. I wanted the option of using each of them either stand alone or together in parallel. Sometimes I have one hooked to the RV and the other to the truck.
To use both panels together, I use the ATP Y-cable connector to hook two panels to one regulator. So far, it has doubled the amperage for charging, but has never got close to the 15 AMP limit of the regulator. Typically, 3.5 amp charge to 7.0 amp charge.
I purchased a Y adapter to go with my 2 Zamp 100 watt panels. The adapter was defective. It would cause a fuse to blow. I called Zamp for a replacement, and they insisted I speak to a technician. It took all day for the tech to call me back. He wanted me to switch wires around on my panel and rig the system so the adapter would work. I said I didn’t have a lot of time before I was to leave for a long camp trip, but I would give it a try. It was late, so I had to work on this the next morning. I switched wires but fuses still blew. I called Zamp back, I had to speak to the tech again. I again waited hours for a call back. I finally gave up and with no other choice I reordered a new adapter. The 2nd adapter worked as intended. My large investment in Zamp panels was compromised by a $20 defective part. Zamp finally refunded my 2nd order and hope I never have to call Zamp again.
