Wow, he has so many so that he doesn't have to worry about how he parks. The ones with direct sunlight will always work better than the ones on the alee side. He can probably park any direction he wants.

What I'd worry about, is how this rig would fair in the winter storms back East in continuous snow, shorter days and darker days. Just when you need power you don't get the sun you need to get it. I hope he sticks to the desert because the forests could be another problem area. It looks like he's got enough panels to run his A/C cuz he's gonna need it in the desert in summer.

I hope he never angers the local kids. It could be expensive if rock throwing occurs. For that matter, hail could be a problem. Keeping the panels clean shouldn't be too hard - just water and a squeegy (I hope, and no waxing involved?).

It does make me wanna get some solar panels, but maybe just a few.
