Homemade Solar Panels

Hey,

Anybody knows the process of making your own Amorphous Silicone Solar Panels?
How difficult can it be?

Thanks.

Oldbitcollector,

Your gonna need to build an awful lot of those to do any work.... 12.5 micro watts for a $1.25 ...I would imagine it would be analogous to painting the golden gate bridge. You would require so many of the 12.5 micro watt PV cells, that by the time you finished filling up the last one with salt water, you'd have to start all over again, because the salt water in the first PV cell would be all dried up.·

You can shop around and find much better deals on Solar Panels than that!... typically solar cells cost anyware between $5 and $10 per Watt delivered right to your door.·(<-- sometimes you can find a deal for much less than that even.)
