I got my SolarWorld SW345 XL panels for 80 cents a watt last year and the
prices are coming down. SolarWorld is a name bard with a 20-year
warenty and not the cheapest panel out there. Be careful with what looks
like a good price.
I saw a youtube video today that said they were buying 25-watt panels for
$7 each.
