Read a piece in the Facist Times that says some bright spark has invented "spray on solar panels"
"Researchers in Canada have discovered a way of applying solar cells to flexible surfaces using minuscule light-sensitive materials.
Known as colloidal quantum dots, the substance could be printed on to a flexible film and used to coat all kinds of surfaces from laptops to aircraft wings, Covering a car roof for instance would produce enough power for 3 100 watt light bulbs or 24 compact fluorescents
The breakthrough system called "sprayLD" could send the prices of solar panels crashing!"
So whatcha think? Wait awhile before I get 'em fitted?
