Apropos to the great discussion about temperature voltage calculations, has anyone else been frustrated by the removal of output information on the Sunny Design tool compared to the old on-line string sizing calculator? It was very useful to me to have the string sizer show the temperature voltage calculations for low and high temperature - as far as I know the only string sizing application that showed this info.
The defunct online sizer allowed me to quickly look at a variety stringing options, see the impact on voltage, narrow down the possibilities and then run my own voltage calculations to verify. Sunny Design makes quickly scanning various string options not so easy, and it buries the results behind more obscure output info. It is quite a sophisticated program, but I wish they gave a way to see the calculations behind the choices it makes. Or am I just missing something?
