A player can carry up to three solar panels in their inventory at once. If you're interested in obtaining additional solar panels, you can ask a friend to help you. Save near the solar panel spawn point, collect all the necessary items, and then load the save. This will allow you to get another set of panels that you can bring to your camp.

How to use solar panels

To use solar panels, you can find a hint in the "Electricity Basics" section of your guidebook. Although players can install panels on any suitable surface, it is recommended to place them on building roofs to make it easier to lay wires and light up the desired objects.

To start using solar panels, you will also need LED bulbs and wire. You can learn more about these resources in the next section.

Where to find bulbs and wire

To find bulbs and wire, look for them in plastic containers with yellow lids, bunkers, abandoned camps, and hideouts. Usually, you'll be able to find several bulbs and spools of wire nearby where you found the solar panels.
