I intend to fit a solar panel to my boat. About 120w seems adequate as the boat is in Greece (where the sun shines more often ). I prefer to buy in the UK and I am going for a framed polycrystalline panel.
In comparing prices and I am surprised to find such large price variations. Prices seem to range from about £300ish to £800ish for what appear to my untrained eye to be similar panels.
Can anyone tell me just what I would be paying for in the more expensive panels?
In view of the advancing technology, I think I would prefer to buy a cheap one now that may need replacing in 5 or so years when panels may be a quarter of the size and half the price they are now.
Is my thinking flawed?
Experiences, suggestions and opinions welcome.
