    Nice testing job on these Sirius panels! We think they're pretty great and appreciate the attention to detail with the water hose and tarp!

    I maximize bifacial output in my ground mounted proof of concept, testbed. What you are describing regarding the clouds is Cloud Edge Effect. Add in high albedo values below and with CEE you can see extremely high efficiency in bursts on cloudy days. My record is 27% efficiency.
    I actually have a startup on how to use waste to mirror a version of CEE which I hope to scale to large scale farms or microgrid pv-bess. I am from Canada but also US now and its been my goal to help prove how great Canada is for utilizing ground mounted bifacial pv, including patio installations yours. It's much better than rooftop for bifacial output but also easier access for more cleanings.
    Nice work!

    Nice job explaining what’s going on!
    I’m curious as to how the back of the panel would do,
    without the cables, & connectors in the way.
    I’ve noticed a few bifacial panels mounted on fences.
    If it works I guess!
    As of yet I don’t have any.
    Maybe I should have some!
    Play carefully, smile often!

    Very nice performance, I am getting about the same with the Aptos 400w panels some days average around 480w per panel, modern bi-facial for the win!

    i've been seeing more light weight flexible panels in my area (Southern California) being sold on various facebook marketplace. It has a rating of 415w, and they are the size of a regular large panel, but it weighs only 16lbs?
    They said life is 25yrs.
    Are these legit?

      16lbs seems a little too good to be true, do you have a link to them?

      @@SmitHVAC. that’s why I was asking since my idea might work for you. Build a foldable lean-to against the house at ground level. Imagine a foldable awning for an RV or a tuck away bed. Then you can choose when to have them in service vs them sitting around. I think it would be a neat idea.
