Solar cell, 1 volt, 400 ma
This solar cell comes complete with attached wires and encased in a clear plastic case for durability. It works with the DC motor and 1.5-volt bulbs. This solar cell produces 400ma current at 1-volt output. Approximately 6.5 x 6.5 cm.
One of the most common ways of harnessing the sun's energy is by
using solar cells, also known as photovoltaic (PV) cells. It absorbs particles of light (photons), which are transferred to a semi-conductor in the solar cell.

Teacher I order these solar cells to make solar cars in my environmental science class. I chose Home Science Tools because I found them cheaper here than at my usual catalog site. They worked very well. I also ordered motors. We did have to use a soldering iron to connect the leads but the kids enjoyed that. Thanks, Martha Holmen
