Subject: [alt-beam] Help...Photovores


Hello Everyone!!!
I'm sorry to ask such a simple question, but I really need help with my
photovore.
I currently finished breadboarding a photovore, and installed the
solarcell...Nothing happened. When I applied a 3v. battery, the motors
instantly vroomed. What am I doing wrong?
The solarcell is the Panasonic BP-373334 (the 30cm one from solarbotics)
The capacitor is a 6.3v 4700uf capacitor.
Could it be the transistors? (they're not the 3906 models)
