Opinion on solar panel kit wanted
I received a notice of this solar panel kit. It seemed like a good deal here in the northeast. 300 watts for $500 including S&H. All opinions welcome.

I think the solarblvd is a reasonable deal, the windy city kit is probably a slightly better deal (I'd prefer the #10 wire in Solarblvd over the #12 in windy city's, I'd prefer the 30A controller in windy city over the 20 in solarblvd). In either case you'll probably need more wire, and you'll probably have to make your own brackets.
I have 2-60 watt and 1-100 watt panel from solarblvd(same brand as in kit), e-bay controller, e-bay connectors, homemade brackets; after one season am very satisfied with all items.
Either of the kits gives you a pretty decent deal, but I'd suggest you consider buying the parts individually. You can probably get them cheaper, and you can get exactly what you want.
