A lot of people are still under the impression that solar gear is expensive to purchase and difficult to install. Actually these days, the opposite is true. There is such a variety in the type of products around designed for use in and around the home that make use of solar energy, and not all of them involve electrical power. The applications may surprise you, especially if you have been out of the loop for a little while and have not kept abreast of the latest technology.
A quick search online for solar cells for sale will return all sorts of results offering you great deals on solar cells for extremely reasonable prices. You see with technology having improved so much lately, the price of excellent solar equipment has gone down considerably. So what used to cost hundreds, even thousands of dollars now is well within the reach of most home owners. Of course there are still super efficient solar systems designed for installation in residential homes, but these also feature the capability to sell surplus generated energy back to the grid – so your solar system then also becomes a source of income.
If you have a swimming pool you will wonder at this next solar gizmo – a solar pool cover.

The best solar pool cover is reasonably priced, and easily operated. And don’t think that the type or size of your pool matters either – there are solar pool covers to fit every shape and size pool – from a small above ground pool to a larger resort style pool.
