Where can i buy mini (1v - 12v) solar panels?
Question:
Answer:
Jameco Electronics carries some small solar panels that may work. They also carry individual cells, so you could make your own panel if you need to.

The amount of current you will need will depend on the motor you are using and the load it will be required to drive. If you have the documentation for the motor is should list current specifications. You can also hook it up to a power supply through an ampmeter and measure the current drawn by the motor directly.
You can buy larger panels and complete systems from several other companies as well:

Radio Shack.
I too want to buy the panels to light up my house.
