How do you collect something which isn't there in adequate amounts to
begin with?


You are asserting that there is not an adequate amount. This is
based on one twenty year old system that you have experience of (and
perhaps you are disappointed with).

On the other hand one can see what people with more modern systems
have to say. You asserted that the two comments on the Solartwin web
site could not be relied on (but your assertions could be relied
on).

Well, the comment below has not been put on the Solartwin web site
and neither is there a link from Solartwin to the pages concerned.
They are http://www.drstephentaylor.plus.com/page4.html and
http://www.drstephentaylor.plus.com/page14.html from which the
following comment is taken, "On a sunny day in mid June when the
system was first running it heated a full tank to 70oC".

So, even if your particular system does not collect adequate amounts
of energy that does not mean that all solar water heating systems
don't collect adequate amounts of energy.
