4 amps seems chirpy to me - the panel is rated at 56Wp - i.e. 56 W when the
sun is at the highest - with the passage of the sun through the sky, I would
naturally assume something like a sine wave output with zero as the sun hit
the horizon and 56 W at 1pm BST - therefore I would guess that the best
charge is only obtained, say, 2-3h each side of the peak. I'm sure the
manufacturers know better than our guesstimates... otherwise, why quote a
daily output that you think is incorrect...
