[QUOTE="Occasional_panner, post: 465617, member: 7956"] That is the max possible with full radiation at the perfect angle when they are cool. Get two panels, leave one in the sun and one inside an air con house. Test the amps on the hot panel, then pull out the cool one and quickly wack it on the same test bed and you'll see a significant difference. They have to state the max possible so the system can be calculated for max possible power, but the panel rarely does that. On my system, the eastern panels almost produce full possible amps in the early morning on a cool day, when they heat up a bit that slowly tapers off. The panels on the western side never have that cool advantage and never perform as well as the eastern side. [/QUOTE]
