Are Solar Panels Worth It? Man Says He Fell Victim To A Scam [View all]

How much you wanna bet, that these grassroots "exposes" are the work of Big Power orgs trying to kill solar? Watching to see if we have more stories like this trying to kill solar power. Can Republican legislation to ban solar be far behind?

Are there scammers selling solar panels? Sure. Are any Enron size scammers?

I had solar panels installed in 2022 with battery back-up. (16 x 450 watt) No surprises and 1st rate performance since. I did my homework, though.
