After the sealant and paint had dried the mounting brackets were fitted to the back of the panel. The ridge tiles on the roof were then removed and the panel screwed to the main wooden beam across the middle of the roof. The panel initally suffered with some condensation due to the sudden tempature change but this soon vanished.

Under bright sunshine the panel was producing a off load output of 19.5 volts and 2.6 amps
