Re: Re: [VAL] Solar panels in NYC



LEDs are probably the way to go for interior lighting this year. Those 
common 50 watt 12 lamps draw 4 amps each and so need their own solar 
panel. You don't really need 50 watts of incandescent when the 
fluorsecents or LEDs are available.

132 panels on a building is nice show, but their output would only run 
three home clothes dryers or two or three electric ranges, maybe 60 
desk top computers.
