Quick test of a 30w solar panel. If you want to start with solar and want something simple this could suit you.
-- More information below! --
I think its a decent panel. But its worth mentioning that if you compare buck/watt a larger 250-300w panel tend to yield better buck per money.
The panel performed very well for the tests I did. It was some where around 5-10% under my panels on my roof but they are also running with an MPPT charger and in this case i was running at 12.4V instead of optimal 18V as mentioned on the backside.
I will follow this up with a build video when I get the MPPT charge-controller!

Nothing spectacular. Just a quick ride this year.
-- More information below! --
Just something totally different from this channel. I do tend to do some biking and Perhaps it might be some work related to it in the future. Who knows.
2 degree Celsius outside and started to rain slightly but still a decent weather. Was just my hands that got cold. I really want those hand-warmers now.
Some gravel roads and some paved roads. Mostly smaller roads along the country side. The bike fits perfect for those kind of rides.
Its not the fastest bike nor the most fun in that sense but it does what its suppose to do
Its a Honda Transalp V700 and it just runs!
The ride was filmed with an old Gopro Hero 3+ that still works just fine.
