Hello!
This is my first post here. We have an off-grid cottage in Conway, NH with ~1000 watts of solar on the roof, so an inexpensive upgrade would be handy.
I ran into a friend who has a stack of about 60 used solar panels that came off a project he has. I took a look at them and see what looks like cracks in many of the cells on every panel I could see. I've never seen this before, so I'm wondering how the cracks affect the cell's performance, so if some panel experts can shed light (sorry for the pun) on this, that would be very helpful.
I'm trying to upload some pics, but Upload Attachments won't let me. Maybe I can't do this until I have a bit more status on the site?
Thanks!
Dan
