This is a project lifted from PV section, but its also (I think) a good learning project for Solar Electricity, and when you are done, you have a useful product. Clearly the lead acid battery posses some safety issues, and adult supervision would be a must. Kevin built a small, portable PV system to provide some power for lights, radio, cell phone charging,... on camping trips. The system is small, simple, inexpensive, and easy to build -- a great learning system. Photovoltaic Solar Energy Introduction Set for pupils aged 16 to 18. Following the success of the Total Solar Expert Secondary School operation, experts from Total, in collaboration with general and vocational High School teachers, are now working on a new version of the educational set for high school students. Who is it for and in which academic disciplines? The Total Solar Expert High School educational set is tailored for the scholastic programs of 16 to 18 years old students As a continuation of the Secondary School set, it can be used in many disciplines such as: Physics-Chemistry, Life and Earth Sciences, Mathematics, History and Geography, Engineering Science and Electrical Engineering.
What will it include? The set will consist of identical tools as the Secondary School set, but it will be adapted to the High School programs: You'll soon be able to find all the Secondary School set's available on our download platform. Coming soon! The Total Solar Expert High School set will be available during the 1st quarter of 2013.
