I'm really interested in getting into solar power as a hobby, but my wife isn't on board with spending much money on it. Does anyone have tips or tricks for obtaining solar panels for free or at a lower cost?

If you have a sizable commercial roof space, using second-hand panels could be a smart option. If you're okay with lower output and lifespan, you might want to explore sealing damaged panels with epoxy to extend their use. It could be a budget-friendly way to dive into your solar project!
Just a friendly reminder, don't consider stealing panels. It's definitely not worth the risk!
Check out Facebook Marketplace! You can often find used solar panels for pretty cheap, usually around $25 to $40 each. I scored some 250W panels for just $20 each from a local solar farm. They still work great! Just make sure you can fit them in your car before you go for it.
Wow, that's an amazing deal!
