Solar cell mount

[watkinni]

I am testing the question "How does the angle of a solar cell effect how much light it converts into electricity?" I have everything i need for the experimentation. Except I do not have a mount to be able to turn the cell at the certain angles. I am looking for guidance on what I could use for this.

This is a great opportunity for you to be creative. How you change the angle of the solar cell is not important. What is important is that it be held at your chosen angle steady enough to get valid data.

You could simply prop the solar panel up on one end with some playing cards or books. You could build a simple bracket device out of cardboard or wood. The possibilities are almost limitless.

Just put on your thinking cap and have fun coming up with your own solution.
