So a [[camping:snowbirding|snowbird]] who "chases 60" will be losing ~10% of panel output during the warmest part of the day. Snowbirds chasing 70 will be losing ~13% of panel output. | So a [[camping:snowbirding|snowbird]] who "chases 60" will be losing ~10% of panel output during the warmest part of the day.
