[QUOTE="TANSTAAFL, post: 4341846, member: 27098"] Even people in "sunny" areas say it isn't a great value. You get cheap chinese solar panels which will more than likely need replacement by the time your loan is over. You need inverters, those die regularly as well. You still will rely on OGE or your electric company, since if you got panels they for some reason cease to work at night, when your most likely to want electricity especially if you work outside the home. You can buy batteries, but do you want to double your cost and devote a well ventilated room and square footage for night time off the grid electricity? But hey, you get a lifetime warranty, assuming that the company is still in business when problems arise. Your simply swapping one bill for another... [/QUOTE]
