Yes, you're right!
I could spend my time more productively by weeding the garden, or cleaning my shoes, perhaps.
Good luck to all of you. May all your dreams come true.
In the meantime, let's hope subsequent testing proves that voltage won't drop below a satisfactory level when some current is drawn from it.
Experimenting with making the patches a quarter of the size is a bit of a head-scratcher, and maybe out of sequence in their development schedule. Capacity to deliver current is directly proportional to area of collector (as with solar panels - similar principle but different energy source, or catalyst). So -
CHARLES OR MATTHEW are you reading this? -
how about capturing some data about voltage sustainability under various current loads before trying to minimise the cell size? 1 centimetre square is already pretty impressive. But sustaining voltage under actual current load is crucial. Once you know this, extrapolating current offtake for any given area size will probably be a matter of simple arithmetic.
