Anodized PV frames on copper roof in marine environment [RE-wrenches]

[graham at solarexpert.com]

Gary,

Last year I replaced a module that spent 19 years on a roof right on the 
beach in Malibu.  I installed the module in 1983 to power a small 12 
volt pump for a solar water heating system.  The storage tank has been 
replaced twice due to rusting out and the system was finaly removed.  
The PV module still works, has some pitting in the aluminum from the 
salty air and the lamination is turning yellow.  I just up-loaded three 
photo's onto this web page.
