They are kind of mineral coating on glass in so many colours and textures. 12 years warranty. Product life 30 years. Toughened glass.
Are the temperature numbers in Celsius? 80 C seems pretty good and -20 is to be expected I guess. I would be curious to know what something like this would cost.
Celsius of course, I hope you Americans would not need to ask this question at all in near future. loooool
I am on Metric side very deeply!
I just

I just saw it today, it seems Italians are working on solar panels very well which I believe it was triggered by the war between Russia and Ukraine and they understood gas from Russia could be cut any time and gas from America is going to be tripled price! loooool So better to pay for expensive solar panels rather than paying to American gas three times higher! No?!
I thought the US all but quit producing gas (unless you’re a foreign owned company on US soil). Anyways I like the idea of the decorative solar panels. If I had the money I might instal some on a shop if I had a shop to cause the shop utility costs to be basically nothing. I heard about a solar technology that will basically be a paintable product. Basically the next generation in solar. More efficient to produce more power per square foot/square meter and paintable meaning pretty much every exterior surface can photovoltaic. Think the entire paint job on a vehicle could produce electricity.

If the paint is going to act like a solar panel most probably Nano technology is involved which is something I don’t like.

I would not call it greener future if these are not going to be recycled properly when they are dead.

Of course, It is made mainly for Italy first! :)))
