This post was updated on March 15th, 2024

If you’ve used solar panels before, you’ve likely suffered trying to find the best position for them to gather the most sun. Now there’s a way to take the guesswork out of orienting your solar panels for maximum energy collection.

Mike and his partner have developed and marketed a unique piece of machinery, a manual solar tracker, that allows you to orient your solar power panel for maximum energy capture.

The SunStalker manual solar tracker takes the guesswork out of positioning your solar power panels.

The SunStalker manual solar tracker is an easy-to-use device that clamps onto your existing solar power panel.

Each solar tracker costs about $10, and you’ll only need one even if you have a grouping of solar power panels.

It’s made of clear plastic, with a couple of colorful inserts.

…my partner and I have been working on a real simple unit that can attach to any solar panel and give you a very basic interface for the best positioning for your solar panels.

This can be built by anyone just by looking at our product or the option to purchase a pre-built unit.

Reposition your solar power panel until the small dot is in the middle of the ‘BEST’ section. You’re done!
