Bob-O,
Good points. A good designer would still avoid putting PV in the shade in the
first place. A retrofit has to factor in the material and labor costs vs. the
value of the system performance improvement. Has anyone done a Solar Magic
installation or some other type of retrofit to remediate shading?

Don't these things add like a buck a watt to the cost of the system? If
that's so, they would have to be magic indeed to yield 10%-15% more power/year
depending on system costs.

Ok, so I've read the pitch from the Manu, however not sure even if the
published specs for shade improvement are very convincing to me..
Would one of my esteemed colleagues explain what it does and how it works.
Thanks, Don Loweburg
