Either mount it on the roof and leave it there, or store it in your house/garage and drag it out when you need it. But if you do that think about how you&#39;re going to actually use it, and ideally use it regularly (that&#39;s how you know it still works).<br/><br/>Depending on latitude and eaves mounting it vertically on a sun-facing wall can be surprisingly effective. 2024-10-18T20:11:57Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsq5mpcxzrglq9p0nuj30z0ep5kkawy5mlxuc5nq93yq449agn5m7szyp5eh9k4rpqhvqutjh5uv99dmcaactc3r5rr732waxvzemydxarl790actm In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsft3mgvvz5z8ufu0cy2cxlwagdfeqm332mcxmrcx86mq4cwsplkacyhv9vr'>nevent1q…v9vr</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>I have a 15-ish year old 5W solar panel that&#39;s encased in fibreglass and cost similar per watt to permanently mounted panels.
