Hi to everybody!

I found this story:

http://www.fieldlines.com/story/2005/5/3/205028/6819

 and wanted to try this homemade solar cell.

Till now I have seen only 150mA from this cell.

May be problem is that my lense is only 90mm diametre. Can't find bigger ones available.

I have a lot of different old (USSR)transistors. Here are some pictures.

All they can produce some energy. I can see that little compound on cristal makes it worse, the size of cristal doesn't affect much to output current.

Please send Your comments and pictures of related information.
