Solar Cells, Motors, and Solar Power Project Kits

Solar Power

0.5V-1200 mAh Solar Battery Panel

For moderately experienced model builders. Solar cells convert the energy of the sun or artificial light into electric energy. 0.5V-1200 mAh cell generates measurable electricity even with faint light. Maximum power is generated in bright sunlight. Recommended for use in combination with special solar motors. Panel is metallic blue in color.
REQUIRES: Assembly. Phillips Screwdriver. Hobby Knife. Adult Supervision. Dimensions: 133 x 65 x 7.5mm (5.24 x 2.56 x .30")

TAMX7662 - $34.95

1.5V-400 mAh Solar Battery Panel

For moderately experienced model builders. Solar cells convert the energy of the sun or artificial light into electric energy. 1.5V-400 mAh cell can produce a high enough voltage to drive the small standard electric motors seen in motorized models. Generates measurable electricity even with faint light. Maximum power is generated in bright sunlight. Panel is metallic blue in color.
REQUIRES: Assembly. Phillips Screwdriver. Hobby Knife. Adult Supervision. Dimensions: 133 x 65 x 7.5mm (5.24 x 2.56 x .30")

TAMX7663 - $34.95

Solar Motor 01

For moderately experienced model builders. Specially designed to be used in conjunction with Tamiya solar cells. Designed for high power and rpm. A good match for the 1.5V-400 mAh solar cell (TAMX7663).
REQUIRES: Assembly. Phillips Screwdriver. Adult Supervision Dimensions: 43 x 30.8 x 24.4mm (1.69 x 1.21 x .96")

TAMX7604 - $14.50

Solar Motor 02

For moderately experienced model builders. Specially designed to be used in conjunction with solar cells. Designed for higher torque at lower rpm. Suitable for running a lightly loaded device.
REQUIRES: Assembly. Phillips Screwdriver. Adult Supervision Dimensions: 33.5 x 19.5 x 32mm (1.32 x .77 x 1.26")

TAMX7605 - $14.50

Solar Car Assembly Kit

For moderately experienced model builders. Using the Solar Car Assembly is a great way to experiment with gear ratios and the angle and intensity of solar light. With three gear ratios, high speed (1.7:1), mid speed (2.2:1), and low speed (3.4:1), you can see the difference gear ratios make under different conditions. The ball-mounted solar panel allows you to angle the panel towards or away from the sun, showing how direct and indirect solar light can affect power. Experiment under a variety of conditions (sunny, cloudy, etc.) and different gear ratios.
REQUIRES: Assembly. Phillips Screwdriver. Hobby Knife. Adult Supervision Motor: Solar 01
Battery: Solar(0.5V–1200mA)

TAMX7661 - $48.95

Solar Powered Dragonfly Kit

For moderately experienced model builders. The Solar Powered Dragonfly kit utilizes a cam and crank mechanism powered by a Solar Motor 02 and Solar Battery (0.5V–1200mA) to make the dragonflies flap their wings. The solar panel can be adjusted to different angles to gain more direct solar light. Construction is very easy, and the dragonflies and base are made of plastic.
REQUIRES: Assembly. Phillips Screwdriver. Hobby Knife. Long Nose Pliers. Adult Supervision

TAMX7607 - $51.95

Solar Car Honda Dream

Suitable for Ages 10 and Older The full-sized Honda Dream made strong third place finish in the 1993 World Solar Challenge in Australia using data learned from the Kyocera ‘Blue Eagle.’ Finished size of the miniature is 115mm long, 40mm wide, and 20mm high. A small solar motor and solar battery are included in this kit. Kit can be assembled by snapping and screwing parts together-no glue is needed. 0.5V-300 mAh solar panel. Steerable rear wheel. Detailed pictorial instructions.
REQUIRES: Assembly. Small Phillips Screwdriver. Modeling Knife.

TAMX7610- $26.95

Solar Kyocera Blue Eagle

For moderately experienced model builders. This is a miniature recreation of the Kyocera ‘Blue Eagle’ created by the Kyocera company and Kitami Kogyo University. Powered by a small solar motor, this miniature solar vehicle is a great introduction to solar science. When completed, the final dimensions of the Blue Eagle are 112mm long, 40mm wide, and 24mm high. Kit can be assembled by snapping and screwing parts together-no glue is needed. Steerable rear wheel. Detailed pictorial instructions.
REQUIRES: Assembly. Phillips Screwdriver. Hobby Knife. Adult Supervision
