Using solar panels for energy? ?

Surely, you don't believe everything you hear!
My Pappy (rest his soul) once told me "Don't believe anything you hear - and only half of what you see!".
Solar panels are still very expensive, even if you assemble your own "display" you are still using store bought components which are friggin' expensive! Even if Home Depot did sell the parts - it would still be expensive!
Solar "Panels" won't be economical for the masses untill they perfect that "Photo-Voltaic Paint" they've been working on. Saw it on the Science Channel, it's the shit!
Hey check this it's the reason why I did this thread anyone heard of this done it before scam or what?

ive seen grow sheds that they sell as a complete package, its a shed purpesly built to grow it has solar panals on top, and those solar panelsintake enough energy even during winter to run ur light, run an intake an outake fans, a a/c unit for in the summer, and a heater for the winter, also runs your inline fans if using it, looked really cool and wish i could get one cuz in the long run its cheaper, and its portable, so u always have a grow room, and it looks just like a regular shed

I looked into this before, and you can put together a 1000 watt solar array for about $3000(maybe less, I didn't search around too much for the best prices). It takes a little skill and 'know how' but it wasn't that complex, after i read through a detailed guide to building the system. I was thinking about spending $3000 every 6 months or so, maybe every year, but after you had a few of these, i think it would be worth the investment. Just imagine being able to run as much power as you wanted, with no electric bill ever again. 
To me, that 'peace of mind' would be well worth the investment, even if it took awhile to pay for itself. I'm going to look into it again, in the future.

Yeah that sounds like a plan just wish it wasent so expensive to save energyI looked into this before, and you can put together a 1000 watt solar array for about $3000(maybe less, I didn't search around too much for the best prices).
