Want to add to my solar array, see great prices on PV panels in pallet lots. Need two more panels, approx 300W @ 24V. Would like to buy together with others not too far away(West Vrgfinia USA) to get better price.

Happy to chat about solar power systems, off-grid ultimate frugality, even politics an survival.
