We should have the rest of the panels wired in some time next week. Its been cloudy and thunderstorms off and on this week so I have yet to get a complete day of hourly data.

Here is the picture from one end, standing as close to the end of the roof as I could get to take the picture and get all of the panels in the shot.

p.s. Black strips to the right are part of a solar heater for the swimming pool.
