-The location and season both have profound effects on solar harvest. [[opinion:frater_secessus:panelsizesforinsolation#representative_areas|For example]], Phoenix AZ has **over 8.5x the amount of solar power** available as Seattle WA in the winter.  For any given location, winter harvest will be about half of summer harvest.

 You can estimate solar harvest using [[electrical:solar:pvwatts|models like PVwatts]].

 Pro:
-  * +30% daily harvest is possible, depending on the sun's position((peak harvest may be much higher at some times but daily harvest is more applicable for offgrid vanlife))
+  * optimal tilt will increase harvest when the sun is low and skies are clear.((peak harvest numbers are more impressive but of less import.))
-  * can be used to increase harvest if roof space is maxxed (cannot add more panel)
+  * can be used to further increase harvest if roof space is maxxed (cannot add more panel)
