(...) I'd suggest that you try this again mid-summer. The solar radiation angle is still fairly low at this time of year with much of the energy being scattered by the atmosphere as well as being spread over a larger surface area of the earth. I (...)

These results are preliminary, but they'll give you some idea of the solar cell's capabilities. Outdoors - Full Overcast Voltage: 3.5V Amperage: 30mA Incandescent Lightbulb - 100W@1" Voltage: 4.1V Amperage: 150mA Indandescent Lightbulb - 100W@6" (...)
