Filming, that is). We had peculiar snow for a few days, and before I mention the run limitations in sub zero conditions, let me equitable make a quick observation about solar panels.
Even when they were covered in a three-inch blanket of snow, our 14 solar panels were still generating a itsy-bitsy bit of power – about enough to run a dozen low voltage lights. I was impressed enough with that, but then one beaming morning (very low winter sun) I got out a kitchen rocking-chair, lifted a broom as high as I could and swept away a dainty corner of snow on the nearest panel. Indubitably no more than three square inches.
About 30 minutes later I heard the most unconventional slidey thundery noise as one by one each row of panels release their load of snow leaving a smooth smooth row of panels basking in winter sunlight. Thankfully there is nothing undeserving of the panels except garden… if you had been motionless there it might have been cold and unpleasant but not dangerous; we didn’t have that much snow.
