    I agree. I wonder what kind of efficiency hit the color causes. Now only if every panel manufacturer would do this.

    Verdigo, where'd you see batteries? I only saw panels.

    Oh, that's where you're talking about. lol. I didn't even take a second look at that page. I thought it was just a demonstration page, given that they're wasting a ton of power with those cool neon glow strips showing the connection path to the batteries. Man, looking at that wall all I see is a LOT of money hanging there. Cripes, you'd probably pay more for that whole setup, panels and all, than I paid for my entire house! Then again, given that the demo house is probably a quarter mill structure minimum, I'm sure they can afford that. :P
