Wrenches, Corey
Yes it was a thing in California but soon fell off the radar, They were
based or had a shop in Sacramento CA. It was mainly designed for BIPV but
was adopted to framed panels, grounding is an issue, mounting of the
electrical another. l have had bolted modules rip out of unirac in Hawaii
during a hurricane so no velcro for me. I would also question the adhesive
if it will take years of heat, water and the material it's adhered too.
Fun times
