   GREAT VIDEO. Watched your other solar pnl videos. Just finished making my 4 pnl and using Grid tie Inverter to feed power back into my home. DIY cost is running 1/2 . Doubled my wattage with roating my last pnl with the SUN. Could not do it without your videos. THANKS.

   Time to move at least part of your house off grid.

   @DjGisME But it does make sense to generate your own power, just not to save the earth.

   those birds look so chaotic, like leaves blowing in the wind

   Good video, solar is the way to go!

8. DjGisME Said,

   In two years NANO SOLAR will be available to the public

9. kaplan234 Said,

   hown many amps does it produce, the last one, 80 watts

10. fonzyslo Said,

    Where can i bay this Grid Tie Inverter In EU ?

11. sjh7132 Said,

    Well think of a hose. If you have a kink, the water still flows into and out of the hose at the same rate.

    The birds at the end, they saw your series panel and wanted to knock out a cell or two:-)

    I heard that bird poop on those panels can cause disproportionate voltage loses. Wow, do you think amorphous is a better choice?

13. GREENPOWERSCIENCE Said,

    @okmoontan Yes, Harbor Freight System same price as a year ago, that in now 2x too expensive. You should pay $3 a watt or less now. SO the HF system should sell for $179.

    45×3=135 + 20 controller, 20 lights $175 would be a fair price.

14. okmoontan Said,

    Hey Dan, I went to Harbor Freight earlier in the week and looked at their 45 watt solar panels. They want $249.00 for them. You just said that this 80 watt panel is about $250.00. Would it not be better to get the 80 watt?

15. SleestaksRule Said,

    Thanks for posting this video! Great info.

16. brt5470 Said,

    I can assume this is because you’re not pushing 63 watts into the house, you’re letting it get pulled through. So the load would be the same.

17. shreddlord Said,

    @andruha11234 it cant take 15.8 hours to make one kilowatt, because power is measured in energy per unit of time(watt=joules per second)

18. sjh7132 Said,

    Cool demo. But your logic saying that you aren’t losing any energy because the meters read the same is faulty. Even if you are losing energy, both meters will read the same. However you are still correct. If your cord is 18 gauge, you only have 1.5 ohms of resistance and a power loss of .4 watts.

19. Ragrog105 Said,

    Dan, 5 stars (*****) but can you do something about the audio? Not only on this video, but virtually all of them. You are about 28 to 34 db lower than the average video posts.

20. McCreathBen Said,

    you used inncorrect grammer PSH sad…

21. andruha11234 Said,

    63 watts is 0.063 kilowatts… which means it takes 15.8 hours to make 1kilowatt which like you said is 10 cents…. do the rest of the math…

22. 1foxtrot70 Said,

    JulyInJuly - You are correct. The type of inverter required to push power into the grid is called a syncronous inverter. This type of inverter monitors and matches the sine wave produced to the sine wave of the grid. When they are in unison then power can be pushed into the grid otherwise a
    non-syncronous inverter will blow up can cause fire and other equipment i.e the solar panel or wind generator, etc can be damaged.

23. truckeejp Said,

    What do you base your wisdom on? The panel cost $280 and he is putting what 63 watts back, power costs about 10 cents per Kilowatt, so thats less then a penny an hour, a hundred hours per dollar so maybe 30,000 hours to pay for the panel so about 3000 days at ten hours a day of sun if you are lucky. 8.2 years

24. cheeseboat15 Said,

    … although both terms are often used interchangeably. Only a very small portion of total power radiated from the sun reaches the Earth…. The average value of this constant (energy density of sunlight) is approximately 1361-1366 watts per square meter
    Don’t you dare for one second try to tell me any cell is 100% efficient.
    As for costs… Are you pulling the information out of your ass, cause I can assure you, you are off by quite a bit.
