How to Build Mini Solar Panels-Learn How to Build Mini Solar Panels

The best thing about solar power is that it has an unlimited potential. Learning how to build mini solar panels is neither technical nor costly; in fact you can easily solar power your complete home for a very small investment. You just need to know how to make your own renewable energy source and today I am going to tell you exactly how to build your own solar panels for electricity.

If you want to learn how to build mini solar panels, you'll need to learn some basics on how exactly do solar panels work. This way, the entire procedure will be much easier to handle.

The process starts with solar modules. They are the main components exposed directly to sunlight. Their main function is to convert the sun's energy into usable electrical power for your home appliances. To get them correctly installed, solar modules are to be mounted on a steel frame and positioned on your roof top.
Power produced by the solar modules is converted from Direct Current (DC) to Alternating Current (AC) through a inverter. Usually, Alternating Current (AC) is the usable electrical power that we need to power the home appliances.

Next, the electrical power transfers from the inverter to the electrical service panel. The electrical service panel is used for distributing the electrical power to different parts of your house or office for use.

The unused electrical power produced by the solar panels will then be brought into the grid all the way through the utility electric meter. As a result, the meter will be made to spin backwards and this establishes a credit with the utility company in offsetting future usage. This method is known as Net Metering and is completely approved by State Level Electricity Policy.

Learning how to build mini solar panels isn’t really a difficult task. You don't require many skills beyond being able to handle wiring & basic tools with care and safety measures.

The components needed for building solar panels include:-

1.    Solar Cells
2.    Sheet Plywood
3.    Copper Wire
4.    General Tools (Drills, screwdrivers, woodwork glue etc)
5.    Clear PVC Sheeting

All these components can be easily picked up by you from the local hardware store. Photovoltaic cell is the only component that you might have to search online and it can be found easily on eBay.

Quality directions that are easy to follow are vital to find when trying to build your own solar panels. This will make the building process less stressful and make you happier that you made the choice to do it yourself. Online is just one of the places you are able to find some of these manuals. We have reviewed the best guides available to help you to learn how to build your own solar panel system for electricity.

Will This Laptop Specs Run Crysis?

Dell XPS m1530:

-Intel® Core™ 2 Duo Processor T9300 (2.5GHz/800Mhz FSB, 6MB Cache)
-High Resolution, glossy widescreen 15.4 inch LCD(1440x900) & 2MP Camera
-4GB Shared Dual Channel DDR2 SDRAM at 667MHz (2 Dimms)
-Speed: 250GB 7200rpm SATA Hard Drive Free Fall Sensor
-256MB NVIDIA® GeForce® 8600M GT
-Intel Next-Gen Wireless-N Mini-card.

Also will it run CoD4, Assassin's Creed, and GRID?
Or is there a better laptop i could get for the price of that one (about 1,700 for that one).

(Serious Answers Only Please)
Thank you.

Are you only considering DELL for a laptop brand?
The XPS m1530 can do the job.
But for USD 1,700 I find the specs sub par and outdated for a gaming laptop. Due to the following reasons.

1. processor is not centrino 2, and only 800FSB. New models now come with 1066 FSB
2. Ram is only 667MHz, present model comes with 800MHz
3. Video card is outdated, and video ram is insufficient. Most gaming video cards now comes with a 512MB to 1GB video ram.

If you would consider different brands, I suggest the following Asus models that cost below USD 1,700.00 (USD 1500 to 1600) and HAVE BETTER specs.

Asus M50Vm-B1
-15.4” WXGA+ 1440 x 900 Color Shine (Glossy)
-Intel Core 2 Duo Montevina T9400 2.53 GHz 6MB 1066 FSB
-nVidia GeForce 9600M GS 1GB DDR2
-4 GB DDR2 800 (2X 2G)

Asus G50V-A1
-15.4” WSXGA+ 1680X1050 Color Shine (Glossy)
-Intel Core 2 Duo Montevina T9400 2.53 GHz 6MB 1066 FSB
-nVidia GeForce 9700M GT 512MB GDDR3
-4 GB DDR2 800 (2X 2G)
