How to boost any solar panel output by 75%
Here''''s a really cost effective and simple way to get 75% more power from any ordinary solar panel. The theory: Most of the time a solar panel is working well below peak power, on hazy days and when the sun is lower in the sky, early morning, late afternoon for example. The light levels are just not high enough, so to boost the light level I tried aligning a mirror to reflect more …
