| Behold the 46 watt (18 amp/hours per day) siemens high efficiency PV panel!
Our staff mounted this on the roof and ran 20 feet of12 ga. Romex wire into the building. It points due west at a 45 degree angle. This allows it to run at maximum output during the late afternoon (the hottest part of the day). |

| This
panel produces 5 watts at .3 amps (1.9 amp hours/day) This would be
great for topping off a battery in a boat or car, or powering a mobile
communications network. |
