I think it's about $10 a pound.. Like high quality steaks..

I do like the fact these are smaller.. The right size for an old guy..
Years ago, I think maybe a 125 watt panel was larger (and harder to handle).

Right now, I'm storing the panels in the living room, standing up, stacked
and leaning against the wall. It's amazing how little room they take up..

Got to go look at some steel U-channel at HomeDepot today..

Edit:
Got the U-channel yesterday (Super-Strut B1400HS), the larger size was bigger and stronger,
but was way too heavy for my taste.

If this turns out to have too much flex, I'll go get the larger size.

Today, I picked up four 4"x4"x8' posts. I will try to use them like a portable mount,
so I can get rid of the old deck that I've been using for a mount these last 20 years.


Kinda like this, but with 4 legs, each 7 feet long.. Made of HEAVY 4x4 posts. (Pressure treated).
