Home made Solar panel 18 to 20 Volts and 70 Watts DIY

Home made Solar panel 18 to 20 Volts and 70 Watts DIY
I hope you enjoy a short video showing my first home made solar panel made from a powerful chain of solar cells. The front of the solar panel as tempered glass and the back of the panel has PVC plastic joined by C channel for support.
I also used silicon to seal the unit.
Again forgive the shoddy camera work, all my good equipment I left at work.
If you made your own solar panels I would love to hear some tips and ideas.
I love the idea of powering my home from the sun using solar panels.
Have a great weekend,
-Pete

more detail pete! please... what is the black tar stuff? filler? sealer? the pvc seams ideal, white for reflecting harmful uv rays, maybe. the black on front will attract rays and heat, but heat is not good for photo voltaic as i think i read the efficiency for power production goes down when hot, contrary to what you would think. you have cells for sale? or good line to purchase? this is GREAT Pete, thank you MR. terry

@watcher0777 Hello Terry,

This was a Frankenstein unit.. LOL The black is tar and I used it to fill the gaps of the broken cells. As there were a lot of fragments.

After doing the last video my Cell producer is supplying me. Now.

If you need some cells I can get you some. The 3x6 are $2 each and very powerful.

All the best,

-Pete

how many of these would it take to power a full size refridgerator?

[mixcatcom]

@bahnscott Well it depends on the fridge, I would say 3 But the nice thing about a grid tie inverter you can keep addeding panels and it supplements the power into the house grid saving you money on your electric bill.

This video is very interesting...!! Do you know?

Commercial Solar panels are expensive !

It takes 10 years to cover up the investment

@Astronomia13 The answer is Yes.

@JRBeaman HAHAHA.. That's like saying water is bad for you, so drink H2O instead!

[Astronomia13]

Where is it possible to take these components as, silicon? How does he look and probably costs expensive? Can eat possibility to make a sunny battery from under what нибудь wastes of production. For example from plastic sewage-pipes and used tin jars from under beer.
