Are you talking to yourself? And agreeing with yourself?

The Sun's energy striking the top of the Atmosphere is 1366 watts on average per sq mtr.

The swing between solar minimum, zero sunspots and sunspot peaks is actually only about a watt.

A small fraction of a percent of total output.

Even during the Maunder Minimum the Suns output hitting the top of the atmosphere was still around 1366 watts per sq meter!

The Maunder Minimum occurred within the Little Ice Age, a long period of lower-than-average European temperatures. [9] The reduced solar activity may have contributed to the climatic cooling, although the cooling began before the solar minimum and its primary cause is believed to be volcanic activity. [10]</i>
