So, thermocouples are commonly used in industry to make temperature probes, typically in the form of a coil of wire containing two conductors of different metals. I wonder if it'd be possible to get ahold of some thermocouple wire and put together a solar cell at home?
I love Low Tech magazine. Half their articles are horribly impractical or not very well thought out but I genuinely still love it.
