    Who here has built their own Solar Panels?

    lol yes it is a pain to make one, but to me it is fun, i like making my things and seeing it work, :) maybe i'm weird but i enjoy it. But i would never recommend anyone trying to attach anything homemade to a grid tied power system.

    Who here has built their own Solar Panels?
