Two 275W Panels

[Tobit]

Is there a way I can get two 275W panels and a 12V bank to play?  Voc = 39.4V. The calculator says 1.4 kids are needed for a 12V bank, so I am right on the edge.  What risks do I run if I try this configuration?

Run the 2 in parallel. All that is going to happen is the Kid will current limit and leave some energy on the table
