How much energy would you collect on an overcast day. Would you have a net loss of battery energy in an overcast condition??

This is really great technology. Utilizing nature's energy for the human's creature comforts. Imagine having enough solar capacity & battery to run the Sanyos as well.

Good work Xringer

For our forcast here, the same, a week of overcast. Hmm maybe time to run the geothermal for some hot water. We will have to see how long our tank will stay hot. At-least a couple days.
