Can you turn a parked car into a solar panel?
Dec 15th, 2008 by Mr.Burton
Funny thought experiment on how to turn a parked car into a solar twin panel by increasing, step by step, the amount of solar energy that it will collect. Barry’s non-technical explanation of why DIY solar water heating is easy. If you want more techy stuff about solartwin solar panels, this is also on youtube. The best solar panels may sometimes be the simplest. Enjoy!

Nice video nice idea………£3400? you can buy alot of gas with that! This is a rich mans game fitting solar!

A few glass tubes some copper pipe a couple of guys all installed in a day £3400 please…lol

Thanks hanzakbar, the answer is twofold. First cost per unit of energy stored. Supercapacitors are expensive compared to bateries, which ate themselves expensive. Second they lose a little energy over time. Over a few days it is negligible, but ofer half a year or more it can be substantial.

In my A levels course i have read about the Capacitors. Now, why not every one keep bundles of capacitors which stores energy in summer which can be used in summer as well as Winter.. Like ants come out in summer and gather food so they can survive the winter season in which they are likely to come out.
