HI MATE,
HAHAHA.........verry good for you in India or similar country where it is more likely to be 'bright' if not sunny.
yeh the cells relie on a 'certain level' of light to generate electricity, as in the shade from the tree which was 'mottled' it only gave 1/2 power............ needs big open space with no shadow areas :-)
not good in UK .......one big shaddow area :-) :-)

regards
don
