    Two mager flaws in this video.
    #1 Does not tell you where you can buy them.
    #2 Does not even suggest how much they coast.

    DAMN, Why don't you take the kidds to an ice cream store make them set there all day and not let them have any ice cream.
    Who ever posted this video is a perverted sadist.

  • Storing power only ...

    Storing power only makes sense if you're completely off grid. For urban applications, you should feed the grid instead.

  • Today (and when you ...

    Today (and when you wrote the post) polysilicon (used as the basis of classic solar cells) trades 350-450$/Kg. Before Germany introduced generous paybacks, Polysilicon cost $30/Kg. PV prices are held high, despite massve recent advances, due to high polysilicon prices. As new polysilicon production comes on-stream, expect a crash in price for PV technology. You need 8g of polysilicon per watt of production.

    These panels generate 12V of direct current electricity which can be used to charge a car battery neatly. If you hook it up to your battery without a charge controller then you have to be careful not to overcharge it

  • The sun is the most ...

    The sun is the most abundant source of energy-it's about time we use it. Coal and oil also come from the sun but go through a couple hundred thousand year process. Cut to the chase, go solar. Since I do business at home, I got a 30% federal tax refund. My totally installed sytem was 50k. Minus the refund the cost was 35k. My payback is in 5.8 years. After that, my energy is cosidered free. Not bad for someone in South Bend IN who gets minimal sunlight.

  • This is a great ...

    This is a great product that works better than any other solar product in low light. Ideal for midwest and northwest climates (works great everywhere). Most of this product goes to Germany which has low light and the product works well there. Uni-Solar provides the best building integrated(BIPV) solar products around.

    As usual you leave out the practical info. that makes it easy to actualy use the product. Ex: Where can I buy it? How much do they cost? How do I get my utitility to set me up with the ability to tie into the grid (I tried getting info. from my power co. and they blew me off.) Is there a Gov. agency I can call to force them to respond? What is the expected payoff period in different climates. I'm so tired of seing theory that everyone knows, With
