I suspect that this will be like big screen TVs and computers. The technology will get perfected, the units will get smaller, and the price will come down. But until then, solar is a big fat no for us.

And that’s not even considering what you would make on your $36,000 up front cost if you invested that for the next 12 years. Solar is NOT worth the return on investment, not even close
