Solar Science Station
Solar Science Station
Overview
The Solar Science Station is a non-soldering solar USB charger. Use itåÊas a tool for recording solar data in the classroom and as aåÊpower supply for gadgets.åÊWe've designed itåÊaround a large 6V 200mA solar cell that sits on a rotating axis (with degree measures), so you can adjust the angle. We have also engraved degree measures on the side. Record heaps of scientific data by having students measure the angle in degrees, the time of day, and the voltage output on the LED Voltmeter display!
The kit can be assembled with only a screw driver and wire stripper, which means itåÊis 100% reusable. An externalåÊ3AA rechargeable battery pack with built-in switch is available as an add-on (batteries included).
