Solar reviews: Simple guide to help you make your own solar panels

Learning how to make solar panels is something that a lot of people are considering today. I mean, look at the prices of fuel and energy, not to mention buying your own solar panels is not cheap. When I thought about using solar power I looked into manufactured panels and about cried when I saw the prices. With more research I realized I could learn how to make solar panels myself. And the best part is that they work just as well and look just as good (if you know what you're doing).

Everything you need to make your own solar panels can be bought locally from a hardware store, minus the solar cells. Now just like you, I had no clue what all was involved in making solar panels, so I turned to the internet. After a little research, I bought a guide book that showed me all that I needed, how to put it together, and how to tie it in to my house.

Really all you need to make solar panels is:

Solar cells at a good price
A sheet of plywood
Copper wiring
And a sheet of glass

These are the main components of a solar panel. Some miscellaneous are: caulking, screws, and some finish trim (to make it look really nice).

The guide book I bought showed me how to arrange and space the solar cells, as well as the wiring. Honestly I was a bit nervous about the wiring part, but you will be just fine if you follow the instructions.

Once the cells are secured the glass is put on with the trim. This really brings it all together and makes the panel look professional. My neighbor ask where I bought my panel and how much it cost. She couldn't believe I made it myself for only $190. So this weekend I'm helping her make a smaller one to power her office room.

So how much will you save my learning how to make solar panels?
