Hi B,
Cupping is not an issue with Unisolar. It is with some other companies.
It is true that Unsolar requires a huge area of roof space, but it is also true that their low light performance is better than most other panels.
I may end up starting over because I now want a lot more watts to be available per square foot of panel.
What many should know, Don was one of a few that helped me get started on my path of obsessiveness on solar. For some, Solar is a drug, for which there is often no return. Damn you Don! :B
While I had not identified manufacturers, so one has the issues identified and can now use that to question whatever Solar choice they make. Also, the many other issues, Don, you were silent on. For that reason my feeling is still heavy in one direction for specific use, in this case RV applications. Toe for Toe, each could be addresses pros and cons for panels or for stick on. Let the buyer/user determine what best suits/works for them.
You'll also note that Don didn't debunk my position on the proper guage cables and proper fusing for banks and electrical equipment (inverter)..
Thats what I appreciate about this forum, good discussions and actions that are shared by many. I for one am glad the OP stuck his big toe into the water and doing some testing. I for one will watch and believe the feedback the OP provides. Thank you.
