Answer 1

Hi Beeper!

Hi bro.. I'm also a Pinoy from the south Iligan City, Philippines.. For your question an installed Photovoltaic/Solar Panel/Solar Cells system will cost somewhere around $9 per Watt. So when you're using a 20watts fluorescent bulb 20 x 9$ x 55Piso/1$ = 9,900 Php which is quite expensive... Here's the reference http://science.howstuffworks.com/solar-cell7.htm but i tried to research some info about there prices some sites would says it is less than a dollar here's another reference for that http://www.industryweek.com/ReadArticle.aspx?ArticleID=14932 That's there price within the US... Freight for that item is not yet cover and prices for that solar panel depends on the manufacturer.

You can look at the prices in the source. I don't know if they ship outside the U.S. and don't know if those prices would be similar to what you would pay in your country, but it is a start.
