Re: [Electric Boats] Re: Okay, planning my solar charging installation.

 

The manufacturer should have a graph showing the output as a function of temperature but it doesn't have to be that cold to see a difference because the rating temp. is pretty high. You'll see a respectabe increase in output as temps. drop below 60 degees F. The most I've ever gotten out of my system was the time we were cruising on a clear, 45 degree day and I was pumping 85 amps into my FM80 when I otherwise would have been doing around 70 amps. A lot has to do with being in the incident angle sweet spot too.




It very seldom gets down to freezing where I am, and then pretty much only at night. I dont think we ever had freezing temps last winter even once. So I am not sure how much cold we are talking about. Do you have an example, from your own observation, of how high the output of a 37v panel can go in cold weather, and the temperature?
