My wife's cousin(next door neighbour) is very much into experimenting everyone calls him "Big science" even though he is relatively rich by Thai standards he always does things on the cheap. He managed to get a large quantity of 200w poly solar cells from a nearby solar farm that was being decommissioned, so as one does he bought the cheapest SSC he could off Ali connected it to an old lead acid he had and hotwired a ups to it as an inverter to power his lights. Everything went well for most of winter but as spring came and solar irradiance shot up, his $2 SSC from Ali decided to try kill someone sleeping nearby in a hammock.
