Most important insight I can offer is to know what state limitations exist, if any. In FL, we have a limited list of panels that have been "state certified" for use in creating a "state certified photovoltaic system". My municipality will only grant me permits to install a "state certified photovoltaic system", which is another $250 piece of paper after someone at the state certifying university reviews the system design for NEC compliance.

After that, I've used Sun Electronics, and Renvu as vendors to purchase my panels. If you have to order less than a pallet of panels, find someone local to split the pallet with. and order a pallet.
