Darn, Now I need to sell my 17.7% panels and buy the new 18.5% panels!

While efficiency is always good, so far we have not seen any of all these
improvements bring prices down in the past 3 years or so. In fact, Kyocera
has raised prices on us about 6 times in the past 18 months.
But then, so have all other manufacturers - I think Sharp had about 15
increases, but we finally gave up on them.
