Solar Energy

Last night, I brought back from my office, a solar-powered dragonfly model kit. It took me about 20 minutes to assemble all the parts and applying the grease plus the stickers. It required quite a lot of power to move the wings, thus unable to work under household fluorescent tubes. When I brought to work this morning, the wings started to flap once the solar-cells came in contact with the sunlight. It was amazing!

At the office, I happened to found one solar-powered car lying around the shelves. Without any hesitation, I quickly put all the parts together. Once it was done, I tested out on the corridor. Wooo Hooo. I felt so amazed once again.

Hmmm maybe next time at my coming house, I would like to have a cupboard with some spotlights and displayed some of these solar-powered toy models.
