Solar panel placement
Are we going to cause a problem for ourself if we place a solar panel raised up over the toilet vent? Should a couple inches of clearance be enough? Thoughts

When I bought a panel from them, the shipping price was the same for one or two modules.
It is still the same now for 1 or 2 panels. 500W array shipped within the western states will cost $442 incl. shipping.
Shipping just one big panel is expensive, but then, people who need only 250W usually buy a couple of 12V.
Ouch, that is just excessive, IMO.
IIRC, I paid $160 for shipping from Norco CA to Mpls MN for a single panel. That was about five years ago.
If you figure in the sales tax, the shipping for the two modules would be a bit more than $200 now (and that is to Western states).
What ever happened to the Midwest branch Solar Blvd was going to open? ISTR it was going to be in TN. That would bring shipping down for some folks but it's still going to be high shipping costs, relatively.
