-"MPPT required for series" is shorthand for "when [[electrical:12v:electrical_notation|Vmp]] greatly exceeds battery bank voltages then PWM is hamstrung and MPPT advantage is most compelling."
+"MPPT required for series" is shorthand for "when [[electrical:12v:electrical_notation|Vmp]] greatly exceeds battery bank voltages then PWM is hamstrung and MPPT peak power advantage is undisputed."
-The corollary to this is "when Vmp is close to battery voltage then MPPT advantage is thinnest and PWM may actually make more power."
+The flipside to this is "when Vmp is close to battery voltage then MPPT advantage is thinnest and PWM may actually make more power." For more on this edge scenario, see [[electrical:solar:output#panel_temperature|temperature derating]].
