^^^^ Sanyo HIT at $500+ compared to others at $150.... Yes you could just get more panels for the same price. Some days would be a wash and other days the lower price panel will produce 3x energy.
Limited roof space and cost of inverter/controller would determine optimal size.
What reference do you have that shows a lower efficiency panel that will produce 3x the power of a more efficient one of any kind?
1x 225w = 225w $500
3x 225w = 675w $450
(ideal conditions)
Poor conditions derate the cheep panels an extra 10%? Or 60%? Your choice.
