Thermostat
This working model thermostat will demonstrate how differential expansion is used to control temperature. A bimetallic strip is used to open or close an electric circuit when temperature changes. The contacts will carry about three amperes. The unit can be operated with a 6 V lantern battery, low voltage power supply, or a blow dryer. Mounted on a metal base; approximately 15 cm high.

Energy Transformation Kit
Appropriate for grades 6 to 12 Brings the First Law of Thermodynamics to life! This pair of precision-machined, chrome-plated steel balls is actually a hands-on demonstration in energy transformation. By striking the balls together, you will create enough heat at the point of contact to burn a hole in a sheet of paper.
