Hello. After reading about repairing the solar cells, and it being almost imposible to solder them,I have an idea.while making the flux cores from black sand,all I did was mix elmers glue and black sand,it got harder than a rock and stuck to the copper real good....The store bought silver epoxy seems expensive.Couldnt you just take some bar silver and use a rasp to grind it, then mix a batch with epoxy and apply it to the solar cells?
