 Excellent product and it arrived safely January 3, 2009
I was so nervous after reading so many of these reviews. But I am happy to say that the box arrived intact and not one issue with the equipment inside. Took me about 30 minutes to assemble everything with a few quick looks at the instructions. I look forward to exploring the potential to this kit..
Simple, effective and inexpensive December 26, 2008
I describe myself as a non-impulse buyer. I studied solar panels for about 2 months before I purchased this unit. In my application it works great. I have a cabin that runs off-grid with batteries and a generator. I spend every weekend at the the cabin and enjoy most of the luxuries of home (lights, tv, and microwave). I use this panel mainly for TV and lights without compromising my comfort. The only way I can do this is by having ample batteries. After all my studying and research that is the key, having enough energy storage.
This panel or panels are great, simply put. Buy a large inverter and a good bank of batteries, you will be very happy.
 Good item, but old technogly. October 21, 2008

This item is big and get only 60 watts,.. so I was looking for more. I invest $1000 for a Sanyo HIP 200,.. its the about the same size and weight but produce 200 watt.
Cons, Old technology, big, come in 4 pcs, only 60 watt
Pro, good price, come with accessories, easy to buy.

For some reason I had some bad luck with this product arriving partially broken. The wonderful people at Amazon made everything alright and I'm really quite happy with my purchase now. These solar panels power a car battery that I found on the side of the road. That battery powers some 12 volt LED lights and a 120 volt inverter for small task in my shop.
Try it you'll like it. But don't be surprised if you have a broken panel or two when it arrives.
These work well October 4, 2008

I bought three of these kits kits for a total of twelve panels. I use them to charge two 115 amp hour marine batteries. The panels seem to bring the batteries up to full charge (green light on) even though the panels are only in direct sunlight for about two hours a day. There are plenty of different connecters for a varity of hookups. The only thing I didn't like was the cheap plastic stand that comes with it. I threw mine out and made a good one out of 1 1/2" angle iron that is 14' long with twelve panels in a row, looks impressive too. Now I'm wondering what I could do with another twelve panels, these things are addictive!
