Features:
It’s a DIY building kit, a toy and educational tool in one It allows children to spend time creatively and teaches them how to use solar energy
When sunlight hits a small solar panel mounted on the roof, it charges a 600mAh Ni-MH battery that supplies a light-emitting diode (LED) that switches on automatically when it gets dark When it gets light again, the LED switches off automatically When the battery is fully charged, the LED shines all night long
The generously dimensioned solar panel with approx 80mA recharges the battery completely on a sunny summer day!
