Will Prowse recommends the Rich solar 400W panels, and I have a few of their 200w panels and have no complaints. But current promotional sale pricing has Rich Solar 400W panels, Qty of 10 for $4,800, and free shipping = $1.20/watt. SunGoldPower is listing a 415W panel, qty of 10 for $2,575 = $.62/watt, and free shipping, no sales tax. This is half the cost of Rich solar. SunGoldPower also has a 450W panel, free shipping, no tax, qty. of 10 for $2,685 = $.59/watt.
As much as I like Rich Solar, it is hard to ignore this price difference, especially on solar panels. What am I missing? New, large solar panels all seem relatively well made with similar performance, so why pay extra? If we were talking about inverters/electronics, I would be more concerned regarding quality and support, but solar panels? Change my mind.
