Did you ever find plenty of broken solar cells at your nearest dump and just ignored them as you thought they were basically worth absolutely nothing. Well, you could not be more far off from reality than that. Solar cells that are broken and old can still be used to produce ample amount of energy and that which is sufficient for some small purposes as maybe lighting a lamp or two. Today you can have great fun trying to make a brand new, highly efficient solar panel from broken old individual solar cells. It is really, really simple and does not require much of an effort at all.
To get started on it, you obviously need a few Solar cells which are broken and you need to try and make sure that you arrange them properly on a flat surface s as to get started with your solar panel. For making this panel your solar cells will be attached in a series connection and not in parallel. Now all you need is a bit of soldering iron work and a little bit of wire. By the way, if you want to increase the efficiency of a solar panel, I have been told that periodic cleaning of the surface (With a moist sponge) really helps a lot.
So how do we finish the little fun project that we started? Just Click Here to find out in detail with even pictures to aid you on the way. This is probably the simplest and easiest one you have done so far. So do make sure that you get down and get this done.
