The Thames & Kosmos 5-in-1 Solar-Powered Rovers offer an intriguing exploration into the remarkable capabilities of solar energy. This kit allows the construction of various solar-powered vehicles and devices, harnessing the power of the sun to create movement.

Utilizing a system of ultralight bamboo rods, plastic gears, and a robust solar panel, five different motorized models can be built that operate using electricity generated directly from sunlight. The kit allows for the construction of three distinct types of solar cars, a solar fan, and a solar robot.

Each model serves as an opportunity to perform science experiments, providing valuable insights into gear ratios, solar cells, and more. The use of ultralight materials ensures the models are both swift and durable. Additionally, the modular gearing system provides the opportunity to experiment with three different gear ratios.
