Solar Panel Components
Where can I buy solar equip in Los Angeles? Smaller scale stuff for portable applications, not a home install.
I’m looking for PV panels, charge controllers, batteries, inverters, that kind of thing. My goal is to build a portable Solar Generator, something like:

You can get all this stuff online, I know, but I’m new to this stuff and would love to inspect the gear, and maybe ask some questions, before I buy.
I’m also looking for highly efficient (LED) lighting components…
For that kind of thing, try an RV dealer.
The parts might also be available from a supplier like Radio Shack, (if they’re still around…)
You can also follow this link and find out where Real Goods Solar’s Los Angeles office is:
http://www.realgoodssolar.com/
Their store is in Hopland, CA, wherever that is…
In a pinch, you can also check the Yellow Pages in your phone book for ‘Solar Power,’ etc.
