While active, it will output 1200 J/sec (60 J/t) through the bottom of the panel base (see sample installation, below). It has a small 96 kJ internal power buffer, but since this will deplete quickly when the sun goes down, it is advisable to use the Solar Generator to charge one or more [[Energy Cube|Energy Cubes]].

The Solar Generator harnesses sunlight to create power.

While active, it will output 1200 J/sec (60 J/t) through the bottom of the panel base. It has a small 96 kJ internal power buffer. This Solar Generator's low output limits its usefulness, but that isn't the case with its larger cousin, the Advanced Solar Generator.
