SOLAR PANEL ALIGNMENT APPARATUS

摘要

An apparatus to assist in aligning a solar panel for maximum sun exposure comprises a built-in digital compass and audible, visual or tactile feedback means indicating how closely aligned the solar panel is with a desired optimal direction. An alignment mode for the apparatus is triggered by the apparatus detecting a manual tap pattern on the housing of the unit. The apparatus may be integral with the solar panel or may be provided as a detachable module.
