Intermediate Level Deluxe Solar Educational Kit

A Little Fact: A Swiss scientist, Horace de Saussure, built the first thermal solar collector in 1767, which was later used to heat water and cook food.

PicoTurbine Windmill 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 Windmill 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. It’s perfect for teaching about Wind Energy in the classroom. Terrific for energy science fair projects, science reports, or just plain fun!

With the The Intermediate Deluxe Solar Educational Kit you can now develop a very unique science fair project by combining it with the PicoTurbine Windmill or PicoTurbine Windmill & DC Experiments. At the same time your child will acquire the basic knowledge of solar energy. Includes manual guide. 1. When you place the solar cell module under direct sunlight, it generates power comparable to batteries. Discover how to harness solar energy and apply to countless practical applications. 2. You will learn how to do a series of do-it-yourself experiments to acquire foundational knowledge upon which you can expand your learnings about solar energy. Science Project Ideas Make a solar circuit. Learn how to increase voltage. Make an electrical circuit. Learn how to increase current. How-to-use solar power to produce energy for a radio, battery charger, calculator, cassette player and more.. Manual Ages 8 and up
