Diy pvc solar panel stand.
Here are the measurements i used for the 100 watt panels.
During the summer solar panels can often lay flat on the ground and make about 90 of the power that they would make if they were up on the rack.
2 35 1 1 4 pvc pipes 1 14 1 2 pipe.
Would be great to include a dry spot for the battery and charge controller.
With the help of the internet and our own ingenuity we built an easy portable collapsible and storable solar panel mount out of nothing but pvc and zip ties.
During the summer the sun is much higher in the sky than it is during the winter.
Built solar panel stand for under 10 using 1 inch pvc pipe.
