Trying to post this as widely as possible: we've revised the solar power rules to fix a few issues, primarily the scoring formula. Device specs haven't changed. The new rules are largely aligned with the Thermodynamics rules now. Check them out at: https://www.soinc.org/learn/trial-events

This is my last try, but does ANYONE have practice tests for solar power?

Is anyone willing to share how well their device for solar power is performing? Specifically, I just want to know how much the temperature increased.

I don’t see anything on the website about impound. I think we just show up in the assigned time slot and check in the device when we get there.

It's in the rules.
Thanks for your response.

Does it actually say anywhere WHERE the event is? I see on the nationals website the list of rooms where the trial events are being held but not which one is where... :?
