200w Renogy Flexible Solar Panels

Hi, bought two of these Renogy 200w each flexible solar panels. I have a redundant Victron BlueSolar Pro 12/20 should I use this or buy a new Victron mppt with VE conection so our Cerbo GX can see the output ? We will put the panels on our bimini. So the question is should i upgrade the BluSolar Pro to a bigger Victron MPPT controler and if so which one, or shoild i just stay with the old unit.

The PWM Pro does not connect to a GX.

You could get 2 X 75/15 mppts or a1 X 100/30 mppt to run the panels and connect to the GX.

Both of them are solid little work horses.

1x 75/15 will be ok for now. It them being flexible means they derate alot.

400W ÷ 12v is 33A though so 30A of charge is better if you don't want loose peak.
