I've now had 2 of the cheaper solar panels go bad on me....last one was being used under the windshield to keep the batt charged in my Focus....battery ended up flat or dead....it did recharge though.
Removed the panel...my guess...defective diode.
Could likely buy a new diode and solder one in....?
Batt cost = $100 or so?
