I was wondering, how do you calculate the angles for rigging up a solar panel for the maximum sun coverage?
I have seen numbers like 20 to 45 degrees but I don't know if those are correct angle numbers. What I'd like to do is rig some wood or metal poles and draw the angle degrees on them and I would lay a panel on it at those angles. So, lets say that the first 6 inch is 30 degrees, then 8 inches is 40 degrees. Crude but workable DiY design. And it does not have to be perfect. TIA.
