Act fast, like right now!!! A new meaning for "crunch time" :(
Panel prices are going way up as we post! The tariff Canada has recently put on Chinese made panels has taken effect, so only old stock a dealer has is still reasonable. Also our dollar is in the sewer which doesn't help.
eg, I was at wegosolar yesterday where you can still get their last 245 watters for $282, but not for long. Meanwhile the 100w and 150w panels just went up by about $100!!!! You would need the Eco-W or other MPPT controller for the 245w.--check eBay for prices on those.
Another dealer on the Island has the same story. Yipes!
Or you can buy in the States, where as usual, prices are much better if you can get there without taking a costly ferry!
