PicoTurbine Windmill Kit V2 is an upgraded version of the original PicoTurbine which has been used by tens of thousands of students, homeschoolers, and even adult hobbyists to learn about Savonius Vertical Axis wind power.

It's mind-blowing for alternative energy science fair projects, science reports, or just plain fun!

Intermediate Level Deluxe Solar Educational Kit

Cen-Tech Multimeter

This combo hybrid is perfect for teaching about wind/solar energy in the classroom.

Product Description PicoTurbine Savonius Wind Turbine Kit V2 is a fully functioning Savonius wind turbine. It stands 8" tall and produces between 2.0-3.0 volts which is enough to light up a bicolor LED (included). The LED flashes red and green to show the alternating current produced. The kit can be easily built in less than one hour. With some adult supervision the kit can be built by children as young as 10 years old. Included in the PicoTurbine Savonius Wind Turbine Kit V2 4 pre-wound coils of enamel coated copper wire 4 ceramic grade-5 magnets 1 (5 1/4”) disk 1 bicolor light emitting diode (LED) with 2 leads 1 (1/2”) Phillips head (cross slot) screw 1 eye-hook screw 1 wooden dowel 1 piece of wood about 6” by 6” and ½” thick (for the base) 1 strip of double-sided tape 1 small piece of sandpaper for stripping the copper wire Manual and Template PicoTurbine Windmill Kit V2 is an upgraded version of the original PicoTurbine which has been used by tens of thousands of students, homeschoolers, and even adult hobbyists to learn about Savonius Vertical Axis wind power. The new improved version gives you a new wood frame so now you have the ability to consistantly generate more power. It’s perfect for teaching about Wind Energy in the classroom. Do fun renewable energy science fair projects, science projects, or just plain interest! This kit contains powerful magnets. People with pacemakers must not handle or go near strong magnets.

The Intermediate Deluxe Solar Educational Kit gives you the ability to develop a far-out science fair project by combining it with the PicoTurbine Windmill or PicoTurbine Windmill & DC Experiments to develop hybrid power. At the same time your child will acquire the basic knowledge of solar energy. 1. When solar cell module is placed in direct sunlight, it generates power comparable to batteries. Experiment on how to harness solar energy and apply your learnings to other practical applications in your daily life. 2. Students can do series of do-it-yourself experiments to acquire the basic knowledge of solar energy. Science Fair Project Ideas Make a solar circuit. Make an electrical circuit. Learn how to increase voltage. Learn how to increase current. How to use solar power to produce energy for a cassette player, radio, calculator, battery charger and more.. Manual Ages 8 and up

Factoid: Wind and Solar power are very complementary renewable electricity sources, and are often used in combination for power in remote areas.

For example, the sun is less intense in the winter, but wind is usually stronger in the winter (cold air is denser, leaves that block wind are not on trees in winter, etc.). The sun doesn’t shine during rainstorms, but the wind is usually higher during storms.
