Best place to buy solar panels online?
I’m looking to buy a solar panel online. Hoping for about 65 watts and looking for the smaller more durable variety (monocrystalline?) as opposed to larger amorphous silicon.
Any ideas where I can get the best deal? And what brand to look for?
I’ve tried Ebay but ended up with poor quality ones. Just looking to make a simple system with 1 panel, 1 battery, 1 charge controller and 1 inverter to power and recharge my laptop and power a dozen or so LED lights.
Ideas anyone?
One company I really respect is realgoods.com and have had some bad experiences with kingsolar.com.
