Discounted Do It Yourself Solar Power!

Looking at The Courier-Journal's sales circular in Sunday's paper (09/13/2010), they had a page from Harbor Freight Tools. One item listed in particular seemed like a good deal, a 45 Watt Solar Panel Kit (12 volt battery & power inverter not included) for $149.99. It lists the manufacturer as Chicago Electric Power Systems. An earlier post on this blog about a video on YouTube spotlighting this system can be found here.

As of this writing the web site shows the 45 Watt Solar Panel Kit at $199.99 but if you visit their coupon web page: http://www.harborfreight.com/clippermag it has coupon to get it for $149.99.

There are about 50 comments from customers who bought the system so make sure to read them to get an idea about the limitations of the panels and value.

They also have a 5 Watt Solar Battery Charger for about $30: http://www.harborfreight.com/5-watt-solar-battery-charger-41144.html
