The purpose of educational solar kits is to provide a hands-on activity that can demonstrate the power of solar energy. The power of solar energy and the solar cells that utilize it resides in the scalability of solar cells. The larger the solar panel, the larger the amount of energy that can be converted into a usable form. No system need go without power with a large enough solar array.
The educational solar kits require little power, however. They are small devices that would typically run on one or two AA batteries, but are instead powered by a solar panel. The benefit of using a solar panel instead of AA batteries is clear. Once the educational solar kits are assembled, they will never need a power supply because the solar panel will be able to provide the power needed by converting sunlight into electricity.
Our selection of Educational Solar Kits includes a Solar Cell Sample Pack, Interconnection Materials for Solar Cells, a Beginner Level Solar Kit, A Solar Cell Information Packet, a DEMOKIT Solar Kit, a Solar House Kit, Scrap Solar Cells, a Solar Circuit Kit, rechargeable AA batteries, and the SolarBreeze Demo Kit.
These are in addition to a range of solar toy kits. These toys include a solar helicopter, an RC Solar Car, a Solar Moon Walker, Solar Racing Crawler, a Solar Worm, a Solar Robot, a Solar Airplane, a "Solabug", a Solar Worm, and a "SolaCar". |
