They have enough energy, but they automatically turn off once the grid goes down because they need the grid to synchronize. Balcony solar panels are not able to work in “island mode”, so no lineman is at risk.
A 120W panel at full sunlight easily has enough power to kill someone. That’s 1A at 120V, minus some conversion losses. 120W is pretty low end these days.
I really feel like one of these store-bought solar panels wouldn’t put out enough electricity to kill someone

You really don’t need a lot of power to kill someone, especially with AC you really don’t need much to induce ventricular fibrillation.
