So by now just about everybody has heard of the latest craze in alternative energy, home made solar panels, but do these panels actually work? Read on to find out more. If you have spent any time researching alternative energy solutions for your home online, you will undoubtedly have come across many ads proclaiming you can make your own homemade energy by using a diy (do it yourself) solar power guide. These guides are extremely attractive as they outline how you can build your own home made solar panels for a fraction of the cost of a retail system (around £200). But the big question is how effective are they? Do they live up to the hype and claims of a reduction of 80% or more off your power bills? Well you may be surprised to hear the answer is an emphatic YES!. As with a lot of items that are sold on the internet there is a lot of scepticism and rightly so as a lot of junk is sold, but if you get one of the better diy solar power kits that guide you through the process of making your own home made solar panels you will be amazed and delighted with the results. The panels are extremely effective, especially for appliances such as televisions, computers, household lighting, radios and just about anything you can think of that doesn't require 3 phase energy such as ducted air-conditioning units, in my opinion these heavier power drawing devices are best left on mains, on grid power sources. In our households experience we are yet to reap the promised 80% but we estimate we are running at around 70% less power company supplied energy, this translated to some very healthy savings indeed.
