Marco:
Good point, but how does a consumer quantify the expected long term harvest
and reliability of a solar electric system? Smooth talking sales people
will assure customers that the lower priced system is of equal value as the
name brand system offered by an established installer.

PS: Our best customers are working or retired trades people or
engineers. They know the difference.

But when it comes down it, what really matters to the consumer is not the
$/watt installed cost but the kWhs produced by the system over time. For
what good is a cheap PV system if its output is poor?
