greenpowerscience.com These are the 124 watt rollable solar panels tied in parallel to produce 230 watts of grid supplemented power. The panels are rated at 124 watts but the inverter uses a bit of power. This inverter is rated at 600 watts. www.youtube.com www.youtube.com
Mike Holmes joins Rick in Oshawa, ON to install a rooftop solar panel system.

I live in the woods and when the wind blows its like Wizard of Oz time out here. Limbs flying every where. What happens if they get hit and a hole is poked in them? My guess would be that they’d be ok.
just a guess but i bet you get better rating then Dan!
Hi…can i pay you for description text space? email: howexpertassistant@gmail.com
I haven’t noticed any combiner boxes with breakers/fuses/etc on your systems, is this something you would recommend? I had build a system awhile back and didn’t worry about it because it was small but am not starting to add more panels to it and would like to know what’s a good way to set a combiner box up as the voltage and amperage are increasing on my system, well voltage b/c I am having some panels on the same strings. It’d be cool if you did a vid on this, but lemme know if you can help
would be good to use the proper terminology when teaching electrical.
like the word wire nut? they are called marettes
Dan, I can see now that you really are a genius…
i like this video a lot, subscribed!
OK, so I got two of those long flexible panels from a guy on ebay, and tested one today, it is pushing the 40+ volts, which according to the label on my 300 watt grid tie inverter is too high for it. What do I do now? Get a different GTI? Put s ome sort of voltage reducer on the line?
Keep the price per watt the same, but make sailboat sails out of this stuff and it would sell hot.
Hi Folks, i think i see a flexible Solar panel??? And for that huge Size only 230 Watts??? Its a good one! To see a real Solarrevolution go on blablabla.solarpanellights.de.tl or click here on my Name and see the future from Solar lighting right now. I think i need some new Clips with my Wife to show how it works. She is hot to.
I want to build a house out of those containers. Saw it on tv, they put some side by side, can stack them, do all sorts of neat stuff.
Solar power chicks are hot.
That mormon commercial played before the video was idiotic. “I believe this planet was made for US.” Probably the most narcissistic statement ever uttered. He singlehandedly beat everything ever said by Muhammed Ali – and it wasn’t even for promoting anything.
$2.5K! what’s the advantage in bothering to purchase one? Here you can enclose the same amount of area using conventional construction for a lot less.
uyy,, uyyy,,, uyyy i would really appreciate a 1080 p video because im really interested in solar power.:) really i am ,,, of course i could watch her talk about it all day long……….
Very cool Denise. I need to find an attractive spokesmodel like you. Nice job.
I’d cover the wires and fill the wire nut with Vaseline – if they are pointed cap up, and out of the suns UV – the connection will stay good almost indefinitely.
@Petawatt haha good point.. i didnt even think of refrigerator containers.. do you know where they sell those types of things?
Wire nuts don’t last long outside.. A weatherproof junction box, or soldering and shrinkwrapping will go for as long as the panel..
@88roro11
you know, they do sell Insulated shipping containers. They sell extra tall, refrigerated, open top, and extra wide door versions too
Since the USA is a importer of cheap plastic crap, there are an excess of containers. The price probably tracks the scrap metal value. Although around here, the 20 foot ones are almost as expensive. The smaller ones are probably more in demand by contractors though. A 40′ one should weigh about 9k lbs. and steel is at 10-12 dollars per 100lb. at the scrapyard. Of course, if you were selling 100 containers at a time you should get a better price.
Looking forward to the next one! Thanks for making all of these videos.
Denise has some MUSCLE on her! Lucky guy Dan.
It does help to be geeky though
Glad to see you making videos too, Denise. Good job. Women need to know that they can do this kind of thing too, its not just for geeky guys.
so pretty
…i hope they arrive to windsor soon
Please fix 24 Sussex drive! Fix those drafts and windows! Save us money!
Wonderful technology. This is the future.

Rejected!!!
How many watts do they make when the snow is covering them? Would be a good idea to put a turbine with it.
Sad. !
this show is very american!!!!
(american: FUCKinG STUPID RECORDED LAUGHTER with people who read from a fucking board and have the same brain mass as a photon!!! not to metion the total lack of useful information.)
Nice one, this was definitely worth several minutes of my time!
lol “Hey hippie!” David Suzuki turns around
love it!
Great episode, but enough with the canned laugh track!
@summzzxoxo Agreed.
Doesn’t get any better…Rick and Mike..would love to see them both tackle Sussex Drive..
Three Best Things in the world for me now.

ugh, rich oshawa
@stickdiggler That was too perfect LOL
Seriously, if lightening had struck that roof we would have no more international celebrities left in Canada
Awesome show!! Go Green Energy Act!! If you want to learn more about community-based approaches to doing renewables like M’Chigeeng First Nation on Manitoulin Island’s 4 MW wind project or Toronto’s Unitarian Church that did a community solar project that people bought shares in check out the Ontario Sustainable Energy Association. We can all be conservers and generators and help make Ontario a cleaner, greener and more prosperous place!
Our Power is a non-profit that can assess your roofs potential and give you good advice. ourpower.ca
lmao Oshawa. aka ‘the Shwa’
@MikeHolmesOnline Love the asbestos comments.
Suzuki was just in the neighborhood lol
Awesome!!! thanks Rick, Mike, David,..congrats Chris! PS – I hope Rick’s ok, that looked like a nasty fall…
I think that you have gotton this all wrong. It amazes me how many fucking idiots there are on this planet. It seems that you have the wiring schematic is fucking wrong…
you moron.
