Tamiya 76009 Solar Panel 0.5V-1500mA Educational Edition  [76009]

Summary of the Tamiya 76009 Solar Panel

The Tamiya 76009 Solar Panel provides a compact way to experiment with solar energy in model and classroom setups. It combines a focus on reliable output with a design intended for hands-on learning.

Design notes and longevity

A polycrystalline silicon cell is coated in epoxy resin to extend service life, and the plastic frame shields the module from routine knocks. With a maximum output of 0.5V and 1500mA, the panel is appropriate for driving Tamiya motors and small gear trains in demonstration projects.

Educational and hobbyist uses

Designed for lesson plans and hobby builds, the Tamiya 76009 Solar Panel works well with Tamiya Solar Motors and gearboxes such as the Low-Current Motor Gearbox (3-Speed), allowing users to study energy conversion and motor behaviour under different lighting.
