There must be a way...

My Father-in-law works at a lab at Cornell where they wanted a number of panels with all exactly the same efficiency for a research project.  Not sure the test method, but obviously they figured one out.

How do you guage a level of used on solar panels? Age? Visual issues? Can you test efficiency reliably, like set up a uv light and specified distance in dark room and measure output? As they age what's the curve look like on efficiency loss?

    I am guessing they are smears of some kind that affect the clear

    Some of the used ones list defects in the description. Saw one
    that said "cracked", and another said "snail tracks". WTH are
    snail tracks?

    I haven't seen anything that will beat this.  $45/panel for 224watts.
