    This should be some of the biggest news of the year, I barely see it being mentioned. Can anybody link to the actual schematics? Those need to be spread around as quickly as possible.

    I agree.

    And while the comments at the bottom claimed a hoax, the people I saw who were commending this achievement and trying to spur the adolescents on all signed their names as Dr.s so I would not put too much weight on thinking it is a hoax right away, but perhaps there needs to be a more thorough investigation of this matter.

    Considering that we are talking about energy here, I would not be suprised if plenty of legitimate sights tried debunking this strategy of energy just so the idea could be swept under the rug. But considering how cheap it should be to make such a thing, if someone could find the schematics than it could be tested ourselves.

    This article reveals it to be a hoax, but has some useful links for those interested in learning more about solar (photovoltaic) power.

    Heh that is true, from looking at the pictures I am trying to understand if that backing is like a mesh of hairs or what? Or is there just one hair connecting each of the gold pins?

    Also one of the posters made the good point of them using the panel indoors, and how it would be difficult to solder hair (which I dunno I have never tried it, perhaps the solder would harden before the hair could shrivel up out of it)
