The Fuel Cell Car and Experiment Kit

The Fuel Cell and Car Experiment Kit offered by Hammacher Schlemmer offers children a look at one of the most important technologies of the 21st century. The overall quality of this experiment set means that children and students of all ages can use it extensively to learn these lessons. This kit can further be adapted for an educational setting and as a demonstration piece to teach students the concept of electrolysis.
The kit includes over thirty experiments for children to enjoy. The topics covered range from how to build a solar-powered car to the effects of radiation to the process and function of electrolysis. The information is presented in a fashion that is appropriate for students as young as twelve. Other topics covered include qualitative analysis, solar electrolysis, oxy-hydrogen test, and the decomposition of water in a fuel cell.
The Fuel Cell Car and Experiment Kit is well-constructed and includes everything that one would need to complete the experiments. The only major complaint that comes from this kit is that the wheels on the car are flimsy and are prone to falling off. Further, they cause it to be nearly impossible for the car to drive in a straight direction. However, this minor flaw detracts nothing from the overall quality and value of this kit.
Although the kit is focused at students as young as twelve, the lack of cartoons and other childlike markings make this kit appropriate for students of all ages. The kit costs $149.95 USD plus delivery.

This seems to be good design. May be we can have few modification in it and can make sure one can drive it straight also. It can be a good example for the all future inventions related to concept cars.

This looks very cool. Fun for adults even….I am growing weary of all the “brainless” toys out there. It starts with the Baby Einstein nonsense and just keeps going. There is not a lot out there (speaking as a parent) that encourages cognitive development. This looks like a great gift for Christmas!

The model kit works well – will run for about 10 minutes on one “charge” of gas. This is not a kit for small children by any means – there are small parts and some parts are a bit fragile. The instruction book is good as a springboard to inquiry and for history, but is short on experiments – that’s what the more expensive kit is for.We originally put this kit together for a science fair/green expo and it had kids fascinated. If you’re interested in learning about alternative power, there is some meat here for you.

I have always been amazed at the way an ordinary observer lends so much more credence and attaches so much more importance to waking events than to those occurring in dreams… Man… is above all the plaything of his memory.
