Hello

In my own personal opinion, it is not efficient using halogen lamp to power PV panels, since halogen lamp uses AC as a source and it can only give a little amount of power/watts to your PV panels, instead of gaining efficient amount to use as a power source, wastage is occur. I suggest, that you use sunlight as a source to your PV panels to use its full potential.
