| | The '''Solar Panel''' generates power by absorbing sunlight, depending on solar intensity, up to 500W per panel on the moon. Can be manually rotated using a [[Wrench]]. Can be built in two configurations, one with opposite side split power/data ports, or two with same side combined power/data ports. | | The '''Solar Panel''' generates power by absorbing sunlight, depending on solar intensity, up to 500W per panel on the moon.

| − | At the extreme attitude settings (0/100) the solar panel still faces 15 degrees above the horizon. Thus the total arc of vertical rotation is only 150 degrees from input values 0-100.

| | | | |
| − | Can also be destroyed by [[Storm|storms]], or left with very little health. Best course of action is to remove the solar panels when you are notified of a [[storm]] by a [[Weather Station]], Which allows you to replace them once the [[storm]] is over.

| − | They can be repaired with [[Duct Tape]], or by dissembling them and reassembling them. You could even cover them with windows to protect them from [[Storm|storms]] at the cost of some efficiency of the panels themselves being lost. And Heavy Solar Panels are a more expensive version that do not take [[storm]] damage but it is debatable if its worth making the tier 2 metal [[Astroloy]] to prevent [[storm]] damage whilst retaining maximum efficiency.

| − | *'''Kit (Solar Panel Basic)''' don't have logic inputs so they can't be set up to automatically track the sun and spend most of their time at reduced power output.

| − | Pay close attention to the positioning of your solar panel since their automation will depend heavily on it.
| |
| − | Most user-made scripts and guides orient the panels with the data port facing sunset and the power port facing sunrise.
