KidWind Gearbox Upgrade Kit
$14.00
If you have a KidWind Advanced Wind Energy Kit or Advanced Wind Experiment Nacelle, this kit will allow you to increase the gear ratios of your turbine from 8:1 to 16:1 or 32:1. This will allow for greatly increased power production, as long as your students can figure out how to design blades with the proper torque and speed to drive this more complex gearbox.
We thank master educator Dick Anderson for this clever upgrade to this iconic kit.
