Thank you for all of your replies. I see now where I was making the mistake of measuring the wrong parameter.
Could I ask for your thoughts on how to achieve what I am after? I am looking to use the PV cells to provide power to a DC/DC converter, the LTC3105. I would like to monitor the power output form the PV cells that would be available to the LTC3105 under varying conditions. As you have mentioned, this depends on the load on the PV cells. However, I cannot find such information in the datasheet for this.
Is there a relatively simple way that I could log the output power from the cells, that would be similar to the available power for the DC/DC converter? I plan to log with an arduino, which I have got working as a 0-5V logger.
If I've explained this in a convoluted way, please say and I'll try my best to explain again.
Andrew.
