How to build a solar panel. DIY Solar cell tabbing & solar panel testing I bought 60+ solar cells that I tab and solder. This is a great DIY project. Its not as hard as I thought to build a solar panel from single solar cells. This is a great way to save money and do your part to save energy. I hope you enjoy it.

Introduction

I’d like for you all to close your eyes and imagine living next to a landfill. 4.6 pounds of new garbage brought in every day for each person that the landfill serves. The smell off rotting fruits and vegetables, and lawn debris. The sound of heavy earth moving equipment and constant traffic in and out of the place. With landfills filling up at an alarming rate and the difficulty in creating new ones, changes must be made.
