This problem is this ....
I have a solar cell rated @ 6 volts -- 50 mAh How do I get more current ( amps ) and vo;ts . DO I wired them in a series circuit or a parrellel circuit or a combined circuot of both parallel - seris circuot

wiring the cells in series increases voltage while amperage stays constant
Wiring the cells in parallel increases current while volts stay constant.
Solar cells don't really behave like batteries and voltage and current output constantly vary depending on what current you are attempting to draw.
ie. with a single 6v 50ma cell if you just draw 5ma the voltage will probably be up around 9-10 volts, draw 70ma and the voltage could drop to 4volts...clear as concrete?

If you want more current and voltage you will have to connect them in combination. Parallel, for more current and series for more voltage.

Depends on the internal resistances.
