DIY solar cell

Combining cheap, broken solar cells I created this array of cells, interconnected so that they actually collect charge from the sun. When placed by a window they create some 2.3 V, and around 2.4mA.
I've created an instructable on how to connect these solar pieces together: http://www.instructables.com/id/E4Q465IT5KEV2Z9NR2/

You would get better comments if you changed the title. What you have is a "makeshift solar collector demonstration" not a "DIY solar cell" which tends to suggest you are making them from scratch. Also, if you put DIY in the title you should show how you soldered them together, polarity, where you got them, etc.

This is NOT a DIY solar cell!!!

This is a bunch of broken cells strung together. Commercial places sell these damaged cells for cheap.
