OK, great, where can I buy a spray-can's worth?

Now, as facetious as that may sound, I'm quite serious. I've been watching Nano Solar and their promise of $1/watt solar energy for years, and I have yet to see it in practice. I'd honestly love to be able to drop $50 on solar cells and know that I can produce 50 watts of power (at peak), but since Nano Solar is only selling to industry, the end consumer is left in the (coal) dust until this stuff catches on.

I guess ultimately, I'll be watching this company now, too. Maybe I can become Walter White, and start "cooking" solar cells at home based on their article.

Nanosolar is bankrupt, and their assets are/were sold off: http://www.greentechmedia.com/articles/read/Nanosolar-Thin-F...

Solar panels can be regularly gotten for under $0.80/watt these days.

You'll have to spring for over 150 watts to get that price range.
