Selling homemade solar panels?

We Answered:

you might first patent the design . Make sure everything is well documented . talk to patent agents and lawyers . Then instead of becoming a seller , introduce your design to established companies. They already have all the licences , lawyers, codes..etc to sell , install, advertise to buyers .

they can often make you a partner or buy your design for a lump sum .


Solar is a huge step . Best wishes

Homemade Solar Panel : Hi! guys i want to know what do you think about Homemade Solar Panel?

We Answered:

Low cost solar panels are also extremely popular worldwide and China is a country that has been discovered to be excelling in this field as they manufacture the most economical solar panels when compared to any other country.

Looking at the way things seem to be moving it seems that China will soon become a country to contend with because of their capabilities to manufacture things at extremely competitive prices. This fact is quite transparent for the simple reason that China appears to be getting more than double the number of orders.

This can also be attributed to the fact that in spite of their low costs they have not only maintained but also improved on their quality too.

We Answered:

Yes, they do work and it's a great way to save money! It will take some time and money to build them but it's really worth the effort.
Righ now, you can build a solar energy system for less than $200 by visiting this site...

Is it possible to make homemade solar panels?

We Answered:

Yes, I've built them myself. I generate about 20% of my monthly power with homemade solar panels. I ordered a video and ebook I found online. I don't remember the name of it but here is a review site that lists several different instructional guides for homemade solar panels.

For solar electric, these may help, but you need to start by buying solar cells.

How to make a homemade solar panel?

We Answered:

Hmm, I answered a very similar question to this one a little bit ago "How can i build a solar panel?". It was asked a few hours after your question, though.

Anyway, I will take my response from that question and tailor it to your needs (the other question concerned a small solar car to be entered in a science fair).

**********************
So, if you want to build your own solar panel that looks like what you see on buildings, etc, you will probably need to be a multi-millionaire. Here is a quote from the first link in my sources list:

"The high-efficiency solar cells you can buy at Radio Shack and other stores are made from highly processed silicon, and require huge factories, high temperatures, vacuum equipment, and lots of money."

But fortunately for you, there is a cheap way to make a solar panel yourself (see link). I love the scitoys website, but I am not quite familiar with this particular experiment. After glancing over it a bit, I would say not to expect any appreciable power out of this panel (so as the site says, no lighting up any bulbs).

But, you should be able to measure the voltage output easily with a voltmeter and be able to detect different voltages at different levels of sunlight. Also, you can probably improve on the design.

Good luck...
