The SP-L 1x6 Photovoltaic Panels are a mid-sized set of deployable solar panels. Unlike the OX-4W/L, the SP-W/L feature a heavy protective shroud. This shroud bears a small yellow sticker reading "WARNING: THIS THING MOVES".
Usage
The SP-L deploy a 1×6 solar cell layout. There is also a SP-W 2x3 version available with a 3×2 layout. These panels generate electric charge only on extended state and directly illuminated by the light of Kerbol. For putting it operational just choose the Exted Panels option in the popping up menu by right-clicking on it. For retraction choose the Retract Panels option with same method. The action groups can make this operation much easier - moreover using the Toggle Panels command, the player can extend and retract several solar panels with a single keystroke.
These panes are very vulnerable in extended state, a minor shaking or even the winds can break them off. Because of this, you have to move very slowly and carefully with extended panels on the celestial bodies, or retract the panels before moving.
