Turn your Lectec electric vehicle into a clean energy generator with the Renewable Energy Extension Kit. Designed for middle and high school students, this hands-on STEM extension lets learners explore renewable energy by converting their Lectec skateboard or scooter into a working wind turbine and solar charging station.
Key Features & Design
-
Dual Power: Wind + Solar — Generate energy using wind or sunlight to charge your Lectec battery.
-
Side-by-Side Energy Experiments — Using the included solar panel, conduct side-by-side energy generation experiments to compare how each source performs under different conditions.
-
What’s Included:
- Wind turbine blades
- Custom mount and stand
- Solar panel with connector
- All necessary hardware for assembly
- Step-by-step build instructions
-
Notes — Does not include motor, ESC, or battery. A Lectec vehicle kit is required for functionality. Contact us to purchase a complete set.
-
Perfect For:
- Middle & High School Classrooms
- STEM Camps & After-School Programs
- Clean Energy & Environmental Engineering Units
- Makerspaces & Green Tech Labs
-
Educational Highlights:
- Teaches Core Renewable Energy Concepts
- Students explore how wind and solar power are captured, converted, and stored using real-world technologies—including a generator, solar panel, ESC, and rechargeable battery system.
- Aligned with Environmental Science & Engineering Pathways
- Hands-On System Design with Real Data Collection
- Fully Student-Built with Modular Learning
- Transforms from Vehicle to Turbine in Under 30 Minutes
- Real-Time Data + Coding Experiments: Connect the ESC to the VESC Tool and unlock live data including: Voltage & current output; Wind speed vs energy produced; Charge performance from solar vs wind; Experiment with code to modify behavior based on real-time data
- Reusable + Flexible: Just like Lectec vehicles, this conversion kit is made to be disassembled and reused over and over. It’s a cost-effective way to expand your STEM curriculum into clean energy topics without additional electronics. Teach the future of energy by building it.
