I just bought a quot;00 wattsolar panel system to install on my house. I just wanted to know if by 00 watts, does that mean per hour, min, day week or what?
You will need many more to do any good.
00 watts is like energy consumption. The computer i am using right now is probably around 300 watts right now. It's not always 00 watts, that's probably maximum. And also, watts = volts x amps.
That means in full sun light you will get enough power for 00 watts. Good job, but it won't do you much good. It will light a 00 bulb while there is bright full sun light. But in dark nothing.
It means that it will deliver 00 watts of energy. Assuming correct voltages, etc. you could connect a 00W incandescent lamp and it will work just fine. So it is the instantaneous output of the panel. Storage is more typically measured in the watt/hour manner - identifying capacity rather than immediate availability. If you have 000 watt/hours of stored energy then you can run your 00W lamp for 0 hours - or two 00W lamps for 5 hours. See? It's simple.
