Product Description

The LED flashes red and green to show the alternating current produced. The kit can be easily built in less than one hour. With some adult supervision the kit can be built by children as young as 10 years old.
PicoTurbine Windmill Kit V2 is an upgraded version of the original PicoTurbine which has been used by tens of thousands of students, homeschoolers, and even adult hobbyists to learn about Savonius Vertical Axis wind power.
