Subject: [alt-beam] Shielding SolarCells


Greetings List,

As I am in the process of building my second photovore (yeah, I'm a slow
builder) I notice how fragile the solar cells are. I was at a site once that
had the solar cells on the photovores protected by laminating them onto metal
sheets. I don't remember but I think it was Bob Shannon's site. I'd really
like to know how this is done as I plan to use it in my future photovore
designs. Are there any other methods that any of have used?

BTW, My site is coming along quite nicely but I am either going to finish it
over the course of the following week or open it without having it completely
finished.
