Organize a DIY race, fueled by hydrogen generated electricity!

DIY solar car kit: Build and learn solar-powered mechanics.

Polycrystalline solar cell with wires used for educational purposes.

Bulk balsa, chipboard sheets, and dowels for blade making in the classroom.

All you need to add is a wind source, basic tools, and imagination!

This kit enables a number of advanced experiments, especially with GENPack generator module. Try different gear ratios, blade designs, generators, and more, in a creative, hands-on inquiry into wind energy science. This nacelle also converts for conducting weightlifting experiments, making it a great option for studying mechanical and electrical energy.

Balsa wood is very lightweight and stiff, and it is perfect for making experimental wind turbine blades.

Educational Materials, Alternative Energy, Application: Physics, KidWind basic turbine building parts

Chipboard is a stiff, easy to cut, lightweight, low cost, and recyclable material used to make simple wind turbine blades.

Experiment with gear ratios on your wind turbine or other small projects. Adding gears to your turbine can greatly increase the generator RPM, giving you higher power output. The small 8-tooth gear fits on 2 mm driveshafts that are found on many DC generators. The gears have a keying feature that allows them to be changed quickly and easily using the included hex locks. The hex lock secures to our 9/64 inch hex-driveshaft. Hex-driveshaft not included.

The GENPack allows students to construct their own electrical generator and perform experiments with electricity and magnetism. Changing variables in the generator design will impact current and voltage output. The GENPack is perfect for physics and electrical students exploring Faraday’s law, induction, AC/DC electricity production, and energy transformations. We recommend this kit for advanced middle school students and older.
