Where to buy single new rigid solar panel

It seems impossible to find a place online to order a single panel. Every store has a 10 panel minimum. I am looking for new 400-500W bi-facial panels.

Re: Where to buy single new rigid solar panel

I've bought a single panel before (regular) 2 panels another time and 3 before.
Just a general search, as i am also interested in new bifacials, some sell in pairs so you could get 2 300 watt or smaller.
But here's a 400 watt single bifacial to buy. https://www.bougerv.com/products/400w-10bb-mono-bifaical-solar-panel[/IMG]

Re: Where to buy single new rigid solar panel

Prices vary among manufacturers, China vs made in USA maybe.
Here is also a cheap panel, about same price as you are showing.

Shipping was only $77.08 USD.

Re: Where to buy single new rigid solar panel

these folks specialize in home installs. they wanna give you a quote for 30 panels or something. hook it into power grid. I'd like to press a button and order a panel. not jump through hoops and make phone calls.

Re: Where to buy single new rigid solar panel

www.sunpoweredyachts.com will sell single panels. I bought a single 475 W panel recently. I will say that shipping will really jack the total cost up. Because of my circumstance I didn't have much choice. And there's always Amazon.

725$ for a 435W is steep.

Re: Where to buy single new rigid solar panel

Good old President #45 put a 50% import duty on Chinese solar panels. That's why you can buy them so much cheaper outside the US.

Greentech Renewables:

https://www.greentechrenewables.com/...s/solar-panels

They sold me two panels, no need to get them shipped. There is a store in Mansfield, MA and one in Wallingford, CT.

Bought two 345W panels from them a few years back and the service was great. They were happy to sell you whatever volume you like.

Renogy solar panels on Amazon are sold as singles, double panels, etc.. as needed. Quick delivery, inexpensive.
