A company that makes self adhesive, flexible solar panels called Uni-Solar has gone out of business. Their leftover stock is now being sold pretty cheaply. I just ordered a 144 watt panel off Ebay for about $170. including shipping. It will require a controller that I will have to look into. The panels are something like 18 feet long and a bit over a foot wide. It would seem to me that it is perfect for a bus roof. I don't think it will help me much in the summer, since I do look to be in the shade, but it should be good for the rest of the year. An hour or two less generator time would be nice.
Anyway, I thought I would pass it on in case anyone else is interested.
