About This Product
Students build each model in turn and see how the motor responds to the light falling on the panel, which opens up work on solar cells and renewable energy. Rebuilding the same parts into different machines also shows how one drive can power several mechanisms. Educational Instrument can dispatch the Solar Energy Kit 4 in 1 to laboratories in Guinea-Bissau, Nicaragua, Croatia, Cabo Verde, Sri Lanka and Cyprus.
