Solar Panel Construction 3 – Open Source Ecology


This shows how to solder solar cell ribbon to solar cells. Part 3. For more information, see openfarmtech.org See more info about constructing our solar panels here: openfarmtech.org We are looking for people who are interested in building the world’s first replicable open source self-sufficient decentralized high appropriate tech permaculture village – to transcend survival and evolve to freedom.

    Hey, check out my website at ScientificallyGreener(Dot) com and get all the new and improved Equipments to build or buy your own solar and wind energy systems ScientificallyGreener(Dot) com is a website that sells the most modern environmental products available

  • Rod7355:

    I plan on buying a soldering gun, which is the best type and how much Watts do I need.. is a 50w good enough

  • SolarXpert:

    I just got my 5″ monocrystalline solar cells at Solar-Deals(.)com for a great price! I’m going to use these for my DIY solar panel.

  • industrialhemprocks:

    Restoring industrial hemp to its rightful place in agriculture today will return much control to our farmers, and away from the multinational corporations that dominate our political process and destroy our environment. These capital-intensive, non-sustainable industries have usurped our economic resources and clear-cut huge tracts of the world’s forests, given us massive oil spills, wars, toxic waste, massive worldwide pollution, global warming and the destruction of entire ecosystems.

  • almanda800:

    Hi there, I believe that the video and the explanations are OK, what actually worries me is the heat produced by the soldering iron which may destroy the cells. Usually is reccomended to
    help oneself with slowing down the temperature immediately after this soldering job.

  • shortysmagic:

    is there conclusion video? where it sais heres how you assemble them and do all the wiring and everything?

  • allymetoo:

    No Tommy , I don’t think so. AFAIK this is still under Development.

    Considering the financial Crisis, it also might be that some Big Lobby Group will just sandbox this for various reasons.

    Let’s see. I’d really love to see this coming soon.

  • tommytowne:

    where else in so cal can I buy cells from? Nano solar is out of them or something.

  • tommytowne:

    Nano Solar is a place to purchase the tiles? Their web site is pretty much saying they have none for sale. Is there another resource? i really want to buy some and build a few panels.

  • izzzzzz6:

    Try feeding the solder onto the iron whilst you are soldering, that way you can keep it flowing and not waste so much time, perhaps the heat will damage the cells but it will be a better technique for tinning the wires.
