Pianotuna made the statement that "amorphous panels are clearly the best for low light performance." I am still waiting for anything that supports that statement.
Anyone knowledgable of PV knows thin film cells produce less power per square foot at a much higher initial cost than conventional panels. Their industry tier rating is #5, making them the least efficient PV produced.
You are only looking at the footprint comparison, not what it can do for you in low light. I have nearly 200w more than Tuna does yet he gets more amps in low light than I do. Get a week of cloudy weather and I'd rather have his because they would keep us off the generator and ours will only delay it's running.
Now do you understand?
