I was searching for small solar panel data and discovered this site. I found similar websites, like http://www.propeller.com/story/2010/01/20/small-solar-panels/ that help you install your very own solar panels but I was trying to figure out where to get the solar panels.
Each post I have read is well written and to the point. I would also like to state, not only are the posts well written, but the lay-out of your site is excellent. It was easy to navigate from post to post and find what I was looking for with ease. Keep up the excellent work you are doing, and I will be back many times in the near future.
