So do you recommend optimizers in that situation? I don’t have any shading until late just before the sun goes down, so it’s not a problem. All trees were cut down that were in the way.

I wonder what the production would be with and without optimizers under that shade condition

Good 👍 Good

So what’s the result here? Do not opt in for optimisers? What is it like with just the panels? How about micro inverters?

[@BeeneEnergy]

For a situation like I have I think optimizers would be an over complicated and expensive solution to a problem that isn't bad enough to warrant any extra effort. I can still make power with a partially shaded array and some of the third party testing on optimizers in mock real world conditions show that the built in bypass diodes of a solar panel are almost as good as having an optimizer, which by the way utilizes the built in bypass diodes of a solar panel :).

Micros are better

[@BeeneEnergy]

This place would be boring if nobody disagreed :).

I'd move your array...... easy fix
