[RE-wrenches] Bifacial modules on pole mounts

[Dave Angelini Offgrid Solar]

I have used the old Sanyo bifacials on a Pergola in snow country with very
good results. They had frames though and have held up really well.  I have
some single axis trackers at my place that I would really love to update
the modules with the new Panasonic bi's.
The frames have always been the thing that stopped me. I will follow your
post here and appreciate any updates.
