I'm about to buy a Unirac system as well. Can you tell me the height of your low profile tilt legs? Are those the 12" version in the video? I was wondering how they are measured. Are they 12" closed or 12" open? Looks like they are 12" closed from the video and you have them fully extended, is that right? Thanks!!!

@helloman1976 You should really contact unirac as they have a calculator you can use or they can do it on the phone which takes into account your panel size your Lat/Lon and tilt needed. Takes a lot of guess work out.

shade - ouch....

@dieselplow Shading turned out to NOT be an issue. We are producing an avg of 33KW / Sunny Day.

Shading is always an issue. Shade is the enemy. I know you're trying, but that array config hurts me to see. I'm NABCEP certified. I know.

Nice video! thanks for sharing your system.

looks like you have some shading from the disconnect box between the lower arrays. Could you lower the box? That panel and its series neighbors would do better in the winter!

very nice system keep us updated thanks

The lower array disconnect shades only in winter for a couple hours on 1 panel. Since these panels are built to have shading NOT effect the entire panels production its not causing any issue with production.
