Hi there!
I am doing my final tests before locking in my system for the camp to be built this summer off grind. At 47 degrees latitude and cold with lots of snow, I decided to try Bi Facial panels. Maybe the snow reflection could bring in more watts the standard panels but I was told not to expect near the outputs that are claimed. Understood but oh well, may as well try. Today at 1;30 solar time I got to my shop and it was sunny after a big storm last night. I thought I would try a panel for fun. Last week I got 1206 watts from a set of 445 panels and wanted to know if that was just a freak thing?
I hooked up just one panel by placing it outside my garage door on an angle of maybe 12 degrees and checked it out-------618 watts!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thats 39% over the panel rating. I am impressed! Thought I would share
