Sunny Boy in the sun? [RE-wrenches]

[Darryl Thayer]

I have three in the sun.  they are on the west side of
the building.  At solar noon they are shaded by the
overhang as the afternoon progresses they are in more
sunlight, but the solar energy is fading on the
collectors.  By time the invewrtrers are near full sun
the collectors are almost out of power.  So the sun is
derating itself.
