That's the question indeed. Mine were really cheap but the price seems to have gone up.
It's also about real world performance. Real world low light situations are not just full spectrum light at some percent intensity. The spectrum is different at dawn vs noon vs shade as well. And there is a whole pipeline of new products announced weekly with improved performance. Somehow I only ever hear about a few actually making it into volume production though.
I think if I were going crazy, I would do as some here have suggested and put a Unisolar on my east facing side, one on my west facing side, and fill my roof with whatever I could best pack up there that is available in current production. I would have a very long solar day making productive amps.
I don't need that at all, but that's one dream.
