Yes, agreed, especially if you're "short-circuiting" them with MOSFETs or TRIACs or something instead of relays. I did know that normally-operating panels were significantly cooler (23% efficiency means 23% less heat than a regular black body) but I had no idea that people used this feature to detect broken panels with thermal cameras. I'd only seen people forward-biasing the panels from an external source to stimulate NIR light emission and using NIR cameras. |
