Rain-X on module glass? [RE-wrenches]

[Jeff Clearwater, Village Power Design]

Hey Chris and all,

>Its was pretty well known years ago that the black framed solarex and
>arco modules worked better at shedding snow than the silver framed
>versions - in fact - even when they were discontinued you could still
>get them if you knew who to ask and said they were going up at high
>elevations.  Not sure who offers black framed modules anymore?

The new Sharp 140/70 modules are black framed and black background. 
They should do well in the snow.
