I want to make something perfectly clear at the start, I am not against the idea of solar panels.
I am not against the idea of alternative power. Hell, it is always good to have a backup.
However, that’s the problem that the Biden Administration has when it comes to solar panels. They want to use them as the main source of power going forward, but on a mass use scale they just aren’t ready yet.
Give you an example. A couple of years ago I bought a set of solar panels that would give me about one kilowatt’s worth of potential solar to power a solar generator I have.
I don’t use this thing to power my house. I don’t use it to power the neighborhood. I use it to power some fans and different things in the event of a power outage.
I can run an air conditioner on it, but even then you have to have those panels really producing. Something that has been a backup for years should never suddenly be considered a replacement.
But Biden and his people are trying to push American companies making solar panels.
The problem with that is that American companies, to be perfectly honest, don’t have the experience that Chinese companies for example have with making them.
Which is why companies in China are absolutely dominating the market when it comes to purchasing solar panels, even though the majority of them are subject to import tariffs which are then passed onto the consumer.
I can tell you from personal experience that I could have bought American made solar panels, but I decided on ones from China because to be blunt they are just made better.
There is more experience and craftsmanship in them. They last longer to be perfectly honest.
Even the portable solar panels, which have a reputation for being flimsy, last longer than the ones that Biden tries to push on us.
It’s another thing that proves the age old notion that a person will pay extra for quality.
I’m quite certain that if I bought the Biden panels I would have returned them for being defective a good long time ago.
