Anyone have experience with UL Solar Panels? They see to be a tad less than most.

Got a 135 W panel from UL Solar. Shipped very fast via FedEx Ground - FOR $50 less that another outfit quoted shipping a well know brand panel from the West coast also. What goes there....?

I am impressed with the very professional crating, padding, etc. The panel looks A-OK so time will tell!

Anyone looking at a UL-SOLAR panel may be assured by my experience thus far.... More, Later!

Here is a link http://www.rvsolarelectric.com/sources.htm that gives much information on the topic. There are differences in the material used in manufacturing of photovoltaic cells. Life span is a result of the better material as well as the ability to produce a usable voltage in less light. Do keep us posted as the the results of your panel over time. Thank you.

I purchased a 125 watt panel from UL Solar to add to my array. It was listed as a weekly special, $309.00 freight included. I chose to make my own brackets rather then purchase their's for $20. The quality appears equal to my Siemens panels. I would also recommend UL Solar. I will probably add one more 125 watt panel.
Thanks for the tip Bob!
