We have selected several Kepler objects with potentially the deepest secondary eclipses. By combination of many single phased light-curves (LCs) we have produced a smooth LC with a larger SNR and made the secondary eclipses more distinct. This allowed us to measure the depth of primary and secondary minimum with greater accuracy and then to determine stellar and planetary radii by simplex modelling.
