    Maybe $1 or $2 per peek Watts

    More like 60 cents. Installing/connecting the panels generally costs far more than buying them even if it’s a DIY job (which, seriously, it shouldn’t be. You could get someone kiled).

    Also the modern panels tend to produce more power per square foot than panels made just a year or two ago. And they often come with a warranty between 25 and 40 years which you won’t get secondhand.
