I was refering to the 10 warranty on the frames, not the power output. undoubtably it is nice to have a power warranty but the strucual integrity of the panels is far more important in my opinion. Also it is difficult to compare a 210w Schuco panel to a 250w Sanyo, your going to have to buy an extra Schuco to make up the numbers
We've calculated that it would take 6 - 10 years of +20% generation to cover the extra up-front cost. Due to the link to RPI, 20% extra generation at 2021 FIT payment level, also considing the potenial cost of electric in 2021, extra generation is going to be very, very valuable. Even if you invested the up front savings I don't think you could match the potenial returns in 10 years time.
It really is horses for courses, and difficuly to say one panel is better than the other due to the multiple variables.
