You might have seen it from Gizoo. It was supposed to bea six in one solar
powered kit. I thought it would be a nice bit of Science for the graandkids.
A bit of a con because it's one motor and one panel. I thought I ought to
test it out for them first though ;-) So I built model one. A solar powered
wind vane. It worked but I felt robbed that there wasn't a wind powered
solar panel as well.
