[RE-wrenches] Ten K Solar

[Dave Click]

This is possible because they have cell-level MPPT. I'd guess that even 
when the sun is perpendicular to the module you'd have a [tiny] bit of 
extra current from diffuse light reflected onto the module, and you'd 
see more substantial gains from reflection if the sun can "see" the 
reflector and PV. I don't think this would be enough to outperform a 
2-axis tracker, but it's an interesting approach to maximizing kWh/kW.
