	Comments:	All my JE references (GG5, etc.) either have "solar cell (battery)" or "solar cell; solar battery". I agree though that "solar battery" does not mean much in English. I suspect those refs can't cope with having a translation for XX電池 which doesn't include "battery" in it somewhere. 直訳 reigns. I'm tempted to add "solar battery", but I think you are right and that it should just be "solar cell".

	Comments:	I am quite sure that this should read "solar cell" instead of "solar battery". I have never read the term "solar battery" anywhere and the term "sun battery" is also not being used anymore.
