Yes Ghurd,
I have a 6x6 that makes about 22v,open, and 300ma short..... so it is about 5-6w at it's power point I suspect. They used a circuit board as a base, stuck on the myriad of tiny cells, and sealed the lot with EVA. Just checked it in the sun a few minutes ago out of curiosity.
It was used in a small electric fencing unit.
............oztules
EDIT:
Gee I'm sorry Ghurd and John, I decided to play with it some more... it just didn't feel right..... with a different meter.... not good news divemaster..... looks more like 3watts now....(<200ma) then used a shunt and measured that......still much poorer than I thought. Ghurd is closer to the money than I was.
Use a small known resistor and take a quick measurment of V lost over it and use ohms law to figure the current .. I=E/R.... then we won't have to guess any more.
Interesting a new 6x6 cell can do 8amps/.5v or 4W.... how I could possibly think we were going to get 6w from the same size.... I'm not sure.
Must stop plugging the meter into voltage sources (48v battery bank) while still plugged into the amp range.... the internal shunt may have suffered more damage than I thought after the last stuff up.
So if yours are about 3w, then you will look forward to .5A... not 1
Thanks for the wake up Ghurd
