Back encapsulation is the best option in my opinion. The benefit is, no need for expensive silicone encapsulants. The back encapsulation prevents much of the resin from UV exposure. These are dew protected water tight 100% The humidity is as undesirable as it can get where we live. If they do not get wet right here, they are protected anyplace. Buster was about three years old when he wandered in the veterinarian’s workplace in early 1995 whilst our canine Sweetie was finding her yearly shots. We took him residence:-) 16 excellent years. If not for the rare lymp cancer that started five months ago, he would have lived a number of a lot more many years. He passed away even though I was filming the foggy camera section of this video.

Sorry to hear about your pet/friend. Couldn’t find the link for the 2 part epoxy stuff. Max-Clear. I’ll keep looking. Thanks for the video. (Tom)
WOOD FRAME it will let WATER IN after 1 year
HAHA did you just set off a bomb in your garden just to make things more interesting?
19 years in dog years is 133 ! That’s old! RIP
0:45 is called death-strike lightning and is one of the countless reasons why I advise my fellow northerners to avoid Florida like the plague.
I made some panels like this one but with an aluminum frame. I wanted to be SURE that it would never break, so I used 1/4 inch tempered glass. I only get 35 watts max out of the panels. Pretty disappointing. I’m sure it’s because the glass is so thick, and/or the resin over the cells is absorbing/reflecting the light :/
Hey Dan my dogs name is Buster also, and he is a Jack Russell also. But it looks like your dog is Boxer.
Thnx 4 da HELP nice Vid !!!
if i were to encapsulate with EVA, do i need to encapsulate the front and the back of the cells? or can i get away with just the back of the cells?
Can you put a magnifying glass over it to make it produce more on shady days?
gooooodd. saludos desde….TIJUANA BAJA CALIFORNIA MEXICO………
Hi, grettings from Colombia, i want know what is the material of “glass” or lamina in frontsize and back size, thanks, and good jop
That resin pretty affordable how much for that gallon can? Your getting some good power out of that panel. I noticed that one cell is split all the way across so it is going to cut down on your amps by half. Can you make a panel out of grade A Cells to see if you can beat your record. Thats a really good panel. You did some nice work on that. I saw a video of a guy that used a storm door glass to make a panel the 3x5s just fit it perfectly. It was tempered glass too. I want to see if it yellow
that is water proof !
