So my home has a lot of trees, meaning that any particular location gets little to no direct sunlight, though it may have a view of "open sky") and of course gets overall daylight illumination that is considerably brighter than inside illumination.
My question is whether reflectors are of any use in "concentrating" indirect light so as to convince conventional solar cells to have a greater output for charging the batteries that they're connected to? Picture one of those cheap "solar garden lights" with a parabolic "thing" around the otherwise pitiful solar cells. (or perhaps in addition to a SC upgrade.) Will it improve things?
Thanks
