Product description
Discover how a fuel cell works! This off-road vehicle is powered not by batteries, but by an electric fuel cell made from magnesium and saltwater. Through the translucent casing of the engine, you can observe how an internal combustion engine operates.
Educational: Explore the functioning of a magnesium-saltwater fuel cell and watch the pistons of the engine rotate.
Detailed manual: The kit includes all the necessary parts along with clear instructions to build an off-road vehicle powered by a fuel cell. The manual also guides how to maintain the fuel cell.
Suitable for all ages: This kit is designed for children aged 14 and older. You can build and use it independently or with an adult.
How it works: The fuel cell generates electricity by utilizing the chemical energy released when magnesium reacts with saltwater. As the vehicle operates, the magnesium leaf is gradually consumed. Each charge provides about 15 minutes of operation. The kit comes with three replaceable magnesium blades, allowing for a total of up to 12 hours of use. For tips on maximizing the performance of your saltwater-powered off-road vehicle, refer to pages 17-19 of the manual.
