Wind Turbine Kit (Each)

Developed with the National Energy Foundation, EcoStyle's Wind Turbine Kit is a working model of a real wind turbine. Hands-on and fully interactive, the kit shows how wind power can be harnessed to generate electricity. The kit is assembled in minutes and is easy to use, and can be used at all stages of Education from Primary to University level. The cardboard storage case helps keep all components organised and protected with individual component compartments and a hinged lid. The Wind Turbine Kit is designed to be durable and provide many years of reliable service.Understand Wind Power

• Experience the power of the wind - both indoors and out.
• Use indoors with a fan, or outdoors in the wind.
• The tail-plane automatically turns the wind turbine towards the wind, even if the wind changes direction.

See the Power

• Harness the wind's power to generate electricity.
• Watch the wind turbine power the electric motor, buzzer or LED, or connect it to the voltmeter to measure the amount of electricity generated.

Learn Through Experimentation

• Try different turbine blade configurations: the hub offers combinations of two, three or six blades, and the blade angles can be easily adjusted too
• Three gearing options: the kit includes a set of four cogs which can be easily interchanged to test three different gear combinations, offering ratios of 3:1, 1:1 and 1:3.
