OK, I have a couple of questions Wilf. Does this circuit use two solar cells?
One hooked to the +V and 0V connections and another for the switching
function? Also, in your "power switch" configuration, would hooking all of
the inverters in parallel add a power boost as it does with a single Bicore
freeformed onto a single HC240?
See ya,
