Solar Heater
crossroads:solar_heater
The <item>Solar Heater/$ is a solar panel that produces heat. When in direct sunlight during the day in clear weather, the <item>solar heat/$ will produce heat at a slow steady rate, up to a maximum temperature of 250°C.
This isn't hot enough to run advanced machines- but it could be used for <link:heat/smelter>smelting/$ or <thing><link:fluid/steam>steam generation/$.
A line of <item>solar heaters/$ connected on their copper ends will share heat. The copper ends are also where <item><link:heat/cable>cables/$ can be connected.

This block pairs well with the <item><link:heat/reserve>Heat Reservoir/$ to store heat generated during the day for use at night.
