Description

The Solar Cell Demonstrator includes a base, solar cells and a motor. Simply attach the cells to the base and watch as the entire disk whirls around in the sunlight!

This little solar cell is a fantastic way to demonstrate to your students (ages 6 and up) the real-life impact of solar energy, as well as open their imaginations to what can be accomplished by powering the world through the sun. The kit’s solar cells are made of layers of silicon, and in bright sunlight, these cells produce approximately .5 volts DC and 300 milliamps.
