Subject: [alt-beam] Solarcells in parallel

Just a little question:

Can you connect 2 solarcells of the same type in parallel to increase
available current?

Reason I ask this is that I thought to have read somewhere that this has
some disadvantages or so, but I forgot where or how or what.

Thanks
