CyberStorm got a reaction from WannabeSolarSparky in Deye 5Kw Install - Can you help a newbie with solar panel advice?@WannabeSolarSparky - Thank you for the information. I'm new to solar and am learning each day, so I really appreciate your advise.
I have another question, what do I need to look at on my inverter specs list and the solar panel spec list to determine if panels will or wont work perfectly?

CyberStorm reacted to GreenFields in Deye 5Kw Install - Can you help a newbie with solar panel advice?Putting 8 panels onto one MPPT at the start makes sense, and if adding more panels, I'd suggest getting 4 and re-configuring as 6 onto each MPPT. More panels than that only makes more sense if you're upgrading the inverter also.

What sparky said. 8 is perfect for each mppt

You can run them 4 in series X 2 strings i.e. 4 panels in series onto each mppt input at the inverter.
When budget allows add at least another 4 panels, 2 onto each string to bring you closer to the optimal voltages.
Or if your roof space allows it then put all 8 onto 1 mppt that should be pretty much close to the sweet spot for efficiency.
Then you have the other mppt to add more panels later.
