Francois Dion<p>After one full week with the solar panel on my vehicle (Tuesday 8am to. Tuesday 8am), I've accumulated 472Ah which is ok I guess for a 200 watts panel that is just laying flat above the bed. I just drove and parked as usual, so a good bit of shade. Weather was a mix of sunny, cloudy and even storm (that took out some trees in the area).
