Snowy panels

[Fintray]

Get a telescopic solar panel cleaning brush. Mine extends to 12m. Gets a little unwieldy, but clears the panels well.

We do this but it's a 3 stage telescopic probably abut 12ft at full extension. I always enjoy getting into snow clearance off the panels.

I clear mine with an extending window cleaning pole, I had previously used the brush on the end of it but when the snow is a bit frozen on top it struggles so I 3D printed a scraper to fit and it seems to be better.

All but two of my panels are ground mounted. I just use a sweeping brush.
15° inclined because I like a flat generation curve and I don't have to wait for the sun to travel around the gable to start producing power.

The snow is all frozen, so it's not going to brush off.
I am now getting a massive 2W from the hoymiles and 160W from the sunsynk (which are half clear due to a bit of melting and slipping)
I'm slightly concerned about my van, which has an 80W panel on the roof, and trickle charges the main battery once the leisure battery is full - it hasn't moved for a week or so, and the main battery is quite old, not normally a problem due to trickle charging from the solar.
I need to venture out tomorrow and it ain't gonna thaw before then

Frost rather than snow but here are the office panels this morning
