Nice insight, thank you.

I can see that there will be a range of markets for these. Installing them in the desert (efficiency not as important as pure cost-per-watt, long-term stability very important) is not the same as installing them on your roof (limited space but fairly easy access, payback time dominated by efficiency) and so the 'customer' sweet point for these will not be the same as the 'industrial' one.
