KidWind® GENPack
The GENPack allows students to construct their own electrical generator and perform experiments with electricity and magnetism. Changing variables in the generator design will impact current and voltage output. The GENPack is perfect for physics and electrical students exploring Faraday’s law, induction, AC/DC electricity production, and energy transformations. We recommend this kit for advanced middle school students and older.

KidWind® Motor Mount Assembly
The KidWind Motor Mount Pack holds the motor (generator) in place when affixed to the wind turbine nacelle. The Motor Mount Pack can be used to replace lost parts from a nacelle. It can also be used to mount a nacelle to the tower for a vertical axis wind turbine configuration.

KidWind® Nacelle
Build a complete turbine by making your own tower and base with PVC pipe (from a hardware store) or use the KidWind Tower and Base Set. You will also need a generator and a way to affix the turbine blades. We recommend using the KidWind Wind Turbine Generator with Wires and a KidWind Hub.

KidWind® Solar Thermal Exploration Kit
The Solar Thermal Exploration Kit is modeled after a domestic solar water-heating system. Explore variables such as box color, light intensity, tube design, rate of water pumping, and amount of time it takes to heat the water. Learn about what makes a solar water heating system more or less efficient.

KidWind® Wind Turbine Hubs
The hub will press fit onto the shaft of many small DC generators; just attach your own blades and begin experimenting with wind power! The hub is designed to allow you to change blade angles and/or interchange blade sets quickly and easily. An improved stainless-steel insert can take a beating in your classroom year after year without failing!
