Hi all,
I may have made a slightly knee jerk/silly decision today. I've bought 16 320Wsolar panels from a gumtree seller, all with broken glass. 25 a pop. I actually haggled and got them for 350, but that's besides the point. Have I made a mistake????
My rationale is, I have no solar panels at the moment to speak of, and I've got theoretical 5.1kW of panels for the price of 1 new perfect one? I know i'll more than likely get no where near 5kW but I thought it was worth a bash at fixing them up.Resin orvarnish maybe?? Has anyone got any suggestions?
Worth noting I picked the panels with good 38V on the meter when in the sunshine and left the others.
Cheers,
Chris
