Here is a 100-Watt Solar Panel Kit ( http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16882260013&cm_re=solar_power-_-82-260-013-_-Product ),
my MAIN QUESTION is, what does it mean to say that this is a 100 watt solar panel?
Does it mean that it can store 100 watts an hour/minute/second in a battery?
Can it store enough power into a battery to power a window A/C which requires 1900/1880 Watts to Condition Air?

My Grandfather just purchased a cheap solar panel kit for his ranch that could not muster enough power to run his mini fridge.
He has two 6 volt batteries running positive to negative and would like to add more batteries. Probably 12volt. How would he go about hooking up the other batteries and what kind of wire or coil should he use.
Also, I saw on youtube a guy recommending a lead-acid battery from walmart for under . I was just going to go to ecology and just pick up some used batteries but I may be wrong.
Any help for a first timer might help me and my gramps out will be appreciated.
Thank you

I have just read an ad for Power4Home solar panel kit, and was wondering if there is an independent review for it. All the reviews are obviously written by Power4Home themselves, including "comparisons" of other DIY kits. Has anyone actually bought these books and been able to come close to building a solar panel with "parts available from the hardware store" as claimed? Photovoltaic cells are expensive, yet they claim it can be done for about 0.

okay, so I have an 11 year old daughter who is doing a solar panel project. I was wondering if someone here has a link where I could purchase a solar panel kit that comes with directions.
Thank you
P.S. I just need a link please!

I’m getting a 45 W solar panel kit ( http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/ctaf/displayitem.taf?Itemnumber=90599 ) for a greenhouse. I want to have a small heater in case of freezing temperatures and a few lights. I’m in the Willamette Valley, Oregon.
I wanted to know approximately what kind of batteries and how many I should get.

I really need to know what size battery I need to use with a 60 watt solar panel kit. Also how many batteries I will need. I will be using this kit with an old self contained camper. Thanks

I saw an ad to the following items
Chicago Electric Power systems
45 Watt Solar Panel Kit
400 Watt/800 Watt power inverter
Power Inverters 2000W Cont./4000W Surge
What else is needed to get electricity from the solar panels into a home?? How does this work?
I get a lot of sun and would be great to lower my HUGE summer electric bill. Lots of Sun = Lots of Heat = A/C all of the time = $$$$.
