Dummy Panels?

[toothbrush]

Hi,

Has anyone had a homeowner or architect request that a dummy panel be placed on the roof as a space filler in an array? This panel would literally just be sitting there, not connected to anything but adjacent other panels. Any experiences with this at all?

The architect is concerned with the appearance - balance is important to them. I can easily imagine one asking for a blank space to be filled.

I'd put the panel in, and hook it up.

In some countries, they sell wooden cell phones, so people can pretend they are talking on their fake phone when driving in their car.

Yup, just buy an additional panel, nothing else will match. If you can't hook it into your string, say you have an odd number of panels and an even number in your string, just leave it in place with the wires taped off. If it's worth $300-$400 for a symmetrical look, then they've probably spent more than that on other useless stuff too.

I think Sharp makes some odd shaped panels.

Now I want a wood grain cell phone!!
