I want to make a solar panel to plug into several portable radios of 4.5V and
6V. The required current between 125-175 mAh.

The cheapest ($7.95) cells I can find so far are 1 volt each producing 400 mAh
of current. More current than I need and they are a bit too large.

I'd be happy to sacrifice current to get some cells that are smaller than this
models 6X9 cm size.

The panel for the radios is being planned to be about 5"X8" total (for all the
cells plus any circuitry). Any recommendations? Links?

thanks
