Explore solar energy with this innovative science kit designed to help students investigate energy transformations. A hinged box helps students discover how the angle of photovoltaic panels relative to the sun affects power output. Compare your experimental findings to online sun-angle calculators.

Three solar panels allow you to explore series and parallel circuits. Learn about the effect of important variables in photovoltaic systems, such as the effects of shade, temperature, and load on solar panel output. Harness energy from the solar panels to pump water or power a small motor.

Includes:
• 1 Sound and Light Board
• 1 protractor, clear, 4 in
• 1 hinged plastic box
• 6 sets of hook-and-pile fastener (2 in strips)
• 1 small water pump
• 3 Solar Panels, 2V/400mA
• 1 piece of clear, plastic tubing (5 ft x 1/4 in ID)
