What I *actually* want to know is the 'average over the year' *watts*
from a panel. I could work it out backwards from the above but a
simple "you'll get about 20% of the panel rating averaged over the
year" would be more useful. I want to know how much panel I need to
install to run a water pump, or how big a water pump I can reasonably
power from a 260 watt panel.
