- ysleepy 6y agoI really don't understand the title, the only toxic thing in there could be the lead based solder. How many solder joints are in there? 4 ? Referring to solar panels as toxic trash is grasping at straws and it makes me wonder what motivation was behind writing up this article.
- rini17 6y agoI have bought some little solar panels as a toy and they come without leads, manufactured only with conductive bars spaced few milimeters apart. To connect them to leads, you have to connect all these bars by soldering a strip, and that's nontrivial amount of solder. AFAIK most panels are connected this way.
