This mod simply adds a solar panel that breaks down after some time. Almost everything about this block can be configured, including FE/t, energy capacity, durability, and more.
Details
The solar panel, once placed, will steadily produce an amount of FE (default 2) per tick if it is in sunlight. It will also gradually lose durability, even if it isn't able to produce power (you can change this behavior in the config file). Once it loses all durability, it breaks down into a block that you can repair, if the config option is enabled.
As of 1.2, the solar panel will also output a redstone signal to comparators - strength 2 while active, strength 1 while inactive, and no output when broken.
1.2.1 adds the Strengthened Solar Panel that's disabled by default. This acts as just a standard solar panel, with no durability loss. It can't output to comparators no matter what, however. This solar panel has its own individual config options, too.
