      My take on swapping panels on an RV is that strut makes that type of change fairly easy. Z brackets do not.

      I'm not quite sure I'm following what exactly you are attempting, but a fairly simple device that can be had fairly cheaply to divide...

      The little Victron I'm using now will be the heart of a 12v camper project. I plan have a mounting system up there that will be quick...

      RV guys with solar are a lot more susceptible because the panels are horizontal and take the entire brunt of hail straight on. Not many...

      I have exact spares put away in storage, but my array serves as the high roofing tile of the solar shack I've built. It was a chore...

      I lived in a middle Georgia for 20 years, never had hail, then had cars damaged by hail back to back years. Thing about panels is the...

      Had dime sized hail, this morning. I don't worry until it's baseball sized. Panels are very resilient and are expected to survive most...

      Same here. My insurance increased exactly $0 when I got solar installed on my roof. They must not see it ad much risk at all.

      I would think you might have more problems with the bifacial panels as the glass thickness is thinner than the conventional panels but I...

      I've never had hail that bad here. Never even left a mark on the car. So I have not worried about it.

      As a solar noob and builder of my first array, hail has finally taken on a new importance in my mind. :) I'm curious just how hail...
