Searing Heat

The weather is hot today.  My plants are all thirsty and I gave them extra watering in the afternoon.  Normally, they are watered in the morning and evening.  My solar system works well.  I left the 12V fan ON all day and in the afternoon, there are enough power direct from the solar panels. 

The fan draws 1.5 amperes and when the sun is out in full force, the solar panels pump out 1.6 amperes.  So there is leftover to charge the storage battery.

So when the sun is out, it is also powering my cooling fan.  This work out well.
