The Fuel Cell Car & Experiment Science Kit by Thames & Kosmos provides a playful introduction to one of the most significant technologies of the early 21st Century. With this kit you can build a model car that actually runs on water! Now, roll up your sleeves and find out more through experiments and demonstrations you can do on your own, or in a classroom with the Fuel Cell Car & Experiment Science Kit by Thames & Kosmos. Some fuel cells, such as this one, do not consume fossil fuels and therefore are considered environmentally friendly. Automobile manufacturers are already experimenting successfully with this technology and it is widely believed that fuel cells will power automobiles and many electronic devices. With more than 30 experiments and demonstrations, users will learn how a reversible fuel cell works to perform electrolysis as well as to create energy. The 96-page, full color Experiment Manual offers over 30 amazing experiments to WOW you. The experiments are based on building a model car that runs on water, and is versatile and cover a wide range of phenomena. The Fuel Cell Car & Experiment Science Kit by Thames & Kosmos is an award winner from the Parents’ Choice Foundation in 2002. The background for each phenomenon is extensive. …For the up-and-coming physicist or environmentalist in your house, or the engineer, this kit is a beaker of excitement.Ages 12 and up.By Thames & Kosmos

Build and operate an exceptional reversible hydrogen fuel cell, powered by water and sunlight with the Fuel Cell 10 Kit by Thames & Kosmos . Conduct 30 experiments to learn about electricity, solar cells, electrolysis, and fuel cells. This science kit consists of seven labs that use a multimeter, a solar cell, and a hydrogen fuel cell to explore the concepts of electricity and energy transfer. By constructing and operating a unique reversible hydrogen fuel cell, powered by water and sunlight, children build a model car that actually runs on water! In so doing, kids will join the auto manufacturers in experimenting with a technology that will power not only automobiles, but electronic devices such as laptops and cell phones.
