   * **Power (W)**: 190 Watts.  <- rated power in Watts under lab conditions.  You can derive **price-per-watt** by dividing $/watts.   * **Power (W)**: 190 Watts.  <- rated power in Watts under lab conditions.  You can derive **price-per-watt** by dividing $/watts.
-  * **Open Circuit Voltage (V)**: 36.00 Voc  <- Volts in full sun with no load.  In practice you will likely not see Voc when hooked to the controller, but **all parts of your solar installation need to be able to cope with the theoretical Voc**.  In serial arrays the Voc ratings are added. +  * **Open Circuit Voltage (Voc)**: 36.00 Voc  <- Volts in full sun with no load.  In practice you will likely not see Voc when hooked to the controller, but **all parts of your solar installation need to be able to cope with the theoretical Voc**.  In serial arrays the Voc ratings are added.

 Note that in this example the Power (W) rating is 190, which is the Vmp x Imp (28.60 x 6.64 = 189.904W).  Note that in this example the Power (W) rating is 190, which is the Vmp x Imp (28.60 x 6.64 = 189.904W).
