I misplaced my Uni- syn once, and bought a Synchrometer. I found the Uni- Syn later, and gave it to a friend. The Synchrometer is a much easier tool to use! I got it locally from Seattle Autosport, b

Sadly, the surface area of a Datsun Roadster ( datsun-roadsters@autox.team.net is a roadster list, remember?) is not large enough to carry enough solar cells to power it. Well, at anything above 1.2
