    a couple of bird shits have the same effect. I'm not saying to do that just infoming people that they suck if fouled and not worth it at this moment in time but everyone seems to think it's the solution.

      so don't install it under a birds nest?

      your argument may have grains of truth in it here and there but on the whole it doesn't pass real world results.

          your whole argument rests on 1 bird shit taking down the entire array and cratering power output. But it doesn't really happen, especially if you use individual inverters (I'm still waiting, worth it or worthless?).

          and even if a bird shit on your roof, spray it off with a hose. big deal?

            I don't have to do the math. I can look at the power generation, in real time, of a real solar array installed on a house a couple miles from where I'm sitting.

                  there was the study that showed the Prius as a net negative but I don't know of any for a pure electric. also, the Tesla S is basically the bleeding edge of electric car technology, so it will be a while before anything like that can possibly be known.

                  also, aside from the "green" side of it, something like the Model S is going to drive so completely different from an ICE car. The instant torque would be very interesting. I'd love to own an E90 M3 because it's fast. same idea.

                    it does take down your power if in series but not if individual inverted, it's what I've said a few times now. And you can have fun doing the math.

                      doing what math? the computers that monitor the solar array do that all for me. I don't have to do anything to know you're full of it.

                        Is it a shock gwb makes a broad statement without any supporting information??

                            I thought this thread was about climate change...

                            You know, it doesn't take a ton of data to come to a conclusion about environmental changes. When I was a kid, I'd be raking leaves this time of year. Now, theyre just starting to change color and wont drop until November.

                              yeah, seasons are changing slowly like always. Winter starts later than usual but goes longer than usual, it has shifted by a month, been saying it for a few years.
