Solar Cell helpp!!?

I bought a solar cell just recently. I went to hook up the leads to the ends of a hobby motor. However, to my dismay, I found that the motor was not running. Is the solar cell unpowerful? The specifications on the cell are 3 volts at 20 miliamperes. Can someone help me out? I am trying to make a solar powered car using this cell as the chief source of energy.

More importantly what is the motor rated at? If your motor is supposed to be 12V and 1Amp, then you’re not going anywhere. Also were you outside on a bright day? Were you inside under a very strong uv light? There are many reasons why this would not work, if the cell is rated at 3V 20mA, you need to understand this is the ‘best’ your cell can do. You need to buy a cell thats larger then then motor size.

solar panel government rebates

solar panel government rebates
Why isn’t the federal government willing to subsidize solar energy panels for homes?

Some states like TX and NJ will subsidize solar energy 40% worth.
But the technology to date has been quite costly in spite of these states’ subsidizing the cost. However, solar energy is starting to turn the corner cost-effectively in the past year or two.
Why is there no serious encouragement from the federal gov’t to encourage homeowners to install solar energy panels by offerering subsidies or rebates for installing it?
Would this be a good idea?

great idea…but the time hasent come yet. I came accross a new, proven and tested home made wind power system and solar power system which eliminates our electricity bills. It was written by a Renewable energy enthusiasts Michael Harvey the diy called Earth4energy. You can get your copy to save energy and help environment while eliminating your power bills.
