A good residential solar panel lasts 25–30 years, and most still produce 80–90% of their original power at the end of that lifespan.

dangur

i think as the 23% gets better i think it could take off

dangur

i dont live in Texas it just came up
Jul 18, 2026 05:42:54

dangur

Texas is only slightly below equatorial regions in total solar energy.
Jul 18, 2026 05:39:52

dangur

if you want to live on the equator there are only 13 countries to choose from
Jul 18, 2026 05:36:48

dangur

so they probably cost millions to produce
Jul 18, 2026 05:36:03

dangur

those cells with that 47% are used in aerospace so like NASA
Jul 18, 2026 05:34:49

dangur

and sure you can probably make that but can you mass produce it
Jul 18, 2026 05:33:21

dangur

just think if it ever hit 50%
Jul 18, 2026 05:32:59

dangur

anyways apparently a typical solar panel nowadays will convert 18-23% of the sunlight that hits it into usable electricty

the dog wanted to go to bed

until it blows over and makes a hole in your neighbors roof LUL
Jul 18, 2026 05:24:34

dangur

some homes dont face east and west
Jul 18, 2026 05:24:02

dangur

then times that by size of each panel
Jul 18, 2026 05:23:10

dangur

400W panels generate 1.6–2.5 kWh/day depending on location A typical U.S. home uses ~29–30 kWh/day

cohopponentbot

i mean that they're just going to be bigger
Jul 18, 2026 05:20:23

dangur

look up 400w panels because thats what they use on homes
Jul 18, 2026 05:14:07

dangur

something sounds off because it should be way more expensive than that
Jul 18, 2026 05:12:32

cohopponentbot

five hundred
Jul 18, 2026 05:12:26

dangur

be generous just say 2000
Jul 18, 2026 05:11:39

dangur

now add the inverter + lifepo batteries
Jul 18, 2026 05:07:47

dangur

i kilowatt-hour is 1000 watts used for one hour
Jul 18, 2026 05:06:54

dangur

4.2
Jul 18, 2026 05:06:48

dangur

no thats total watts a day
Jul 18, 2026 05:06:21

dangur

that should be in kwh
Jul 18, 2026 05:05:41

dangur

4200
Jul 18, 2026 05:05:41

cohopponentbot

my head
Jul 18, 2026 05:03:37

dangur

so i guessed my pc et all would be 400w on average an hour thats 9600 watts a day
Jul 18, 2026 05:02:00

dangur

the thing you have to consider is i have to store it, it has to keep making power while still being used and i only have roughly 8-9 hours of sunlight
Jul 18, 2026 05:00:42

dangur

just those panels i can lay outside
