Anyone ever lose a solar panel off the roof?
I know there are many ways to mount the solar panels on the roof, some more secure than others. Has anyone ever lost one and do the cables prevent it from flying off and do other damage?

The cables are soldered on at best. They will tear off fairly easily.
I've not heard about solar panels falling off, mainly because they tend to be parallel to wind forces, so not that much is needed to keep them secure. However, anything can happen. I'd say that if a panel is secured at four points at the minimum, it will stick around.
I do prefer screws or rivets, but if done right, adhesive mounts can't hurt either.
