It seems like we could make this a lot more efficient by using pistons and having the sunlight push the pistons, turning a generator.

If you plug a power strip into each one of those empty plugs, you could power the whole house!

In all fairness, you need to install a magnet at the far end and keep constantly pluging and unplugging it to generate power...

Good idea! We'll just need some steam turbines to help sunlight move the pistons in order to reach peak efficiency!

I want us to build a Dyson swarm which is a bunch of ginormous pistons with attached even more ginormous solar sails. The solar sails pull the pistons which make generator go brr, and we become a K-2 civilization.
