Combining old solar cells off calculators and solar lights?

Sean — Sun, 18 Jul 2010 20:31:59 +0000

How do you combine solar cells like ones removed from calculators and solar lights to generate more power, is it as simple as wiring alike color wires together? And after the wiring is done what type of energy is created DC or AC?
The cells are not damaged they are just removed from different solar powered objects like solar lights and calculators. I know they are small scale but can I link them all together to create more wattage?
Could someone explain the difference and wiring parallel and series and how they effect voltage Vs. Amps?
