Just wondering if anyone has attempted a DIY solar panel and or windturbine?
I'm sure everyone would love to cut there energy bills, but honestly who has 10-20k to drop on a roof full of solar panels? It would take like 10 years for it to pay for itself, assuming they last that long.
I'v been reading up on buying used/blemished solar cells on ebay for uber cheap in bundles. And with alittle ingenuity and many trips to homedepot, it's entirely possible.
Would be nice to get first hand experience from someone who attempted this already.
I live in a house with roomates, and a pool, and jacuzzi, and multiple band practices/jam sesh's with tons of amps/equipment, needless to say we got high bills.
