I agree with this but they can still put out some watts!I dont know the timeline but Solar panels have become WAY more efficient in recent years...over like the last 10 years I think. panels are smaller and generate alot more energy in that smaller package.
But for a barn or cabin, I agree. I would not use a 20 year old panel setup on my house.
But I still wouldn't ever buy them because the price makes the ROI longer than I'll be alive.
