I have 2 x 160w, lightweight panels and they are enough for all our cooking and to boil the kettle throughout the day even when it's overcast. It took me a while to find your video but it's the perfect design. Thank-you.
I def want to build something like this but with the ability to have 12 panels arranged landscape instead of portrait Would do three sets of 4 making it about 10'6" wide (long) by 5' high. I want the wheels to easily detach or pivot upward when I want it to stay in one location for awhile or at least give the appearance of being mobile, but in reality I will keep it in between my two large gardens permanently. If however, a severe hail storm was coming, I would move it inside my barn until the storm has passed, so I would probably mount a type of 90degree trailer hitch to the rear PTO hitch on the back of my tractor. Having a small farmette is great but being inside the city limits by 1/8 mile means EVERYTHING needs a permit, if it is permanent. Also needs an inspection by an electrician even though it would appear to be self contained and charging a battery in a small box under the panels. lol
I would like to do something similar with two Rich Solar 400 Watt Panels, I was thinking about using an oversized double wide pallet as a means of mounting them at a proper angle to the sun. Your idea looks great for 100 watt panels. Thank You
I may be wrong but that adjusting leg would have to tread out of the box frame to lower the panels as the angle you show, the leg is at the edge of the frame
I really like this. On a regular basis it is quite windy where I live. This morning I had sustained winds of 40 to 45 mph with wind gusts of ?. Do you think this would hold up?

Perfect. Just the portable build I was looking for. Thank you very much.

@@danielcraig9349 now that sounds like a fun project
Perfect! Well done, sir! This is exactly what I want.
Yeah I put it behind my shed. Works perfect.
now that is a clever design.

Nice job. I’m looking for a design and this looks good.

Great video. Exactly what I was looking for.
Excellent idea I'm going to build me some like that . thanks
Great idea . Thanks for sharing
Simple but good,
That is nice.
Bravo!

Absolutely.
Where ya getting those L brackets from?

Thanks
now add a foot on the front, so you can stand it up right in the garage when you need to...
Ohhh that's a great idea. Good call.
