Product Description
This epoxy-encapsulated polycrystalline solar cell offers 6.7V and 31mA in a 37x33mm package.
These are mounted on sturdy fiber glass backing, with color-coded polarity solder tabs.
As for performance, it offers 6.1V at 23mA in its 37x33mm package.
After using these solar cells for a couple of bots I noticed that they can be altered to provide about 3.3v at near 80ma (in full sun) by cutting the bus connector on the back to electrically separate the two sides of the cell and then to cross-connect the two sides of the bus to the + and -contacts.
This puts the two sides in parallel.
Nice - half the voltage; twice the current, still all in the same solar package! * There can be some variation in the voltage and current rating under different atmospheric conditions
