What struck me as odd on that site was this page:

http://www.ctsolar.com/ChargeControllerKit.htm

Look at the heat sink on this controller!  I really don't know much about
this stuff, but it seems that we gather the energy from the sun carefully
and at considerable one-time expense, and then we dissipate a bunch of it
as HEAT!  That can't be right.  I'm obviously missing something.
