The '''Solar Panel''' is the improved version of the [[Primitive Solar Panel]], with twice the output and more storage.<br />
<br />
''This page describes Voluminous Energy 0.5 (Alpha 2, for 1.21.1, 26.1.2 and 26.2). All numbers are the default values from the startup config and can be changed there.''<br />
<br />
== Usage ==<br />
The panel needs an unobstructed view of the sky directly above it. Output follows the sun: the full rate around noon, falling off towards sunrise and sunset, and nothing at night. Rain reduces output to 60%, and thunderstorms to 20%. Energy is pushed into adjacent machines.<br />

Crafting a Solar Panel on its own in a crafting grid returns a fresh Solar Panel, clearing its stored data.<br />
