2 JUNIOR KITS FCJJ-11 Fuel Cell Car Science Kit Build your own working fuel cell car, harnessing the power of hydrogen and solar energy. With Horizon s original fuel cell car kit you can generate hydrogen from distilled water through electrolysis and power this process with a solar panel. This hydrogen is then converted to electrical energy by the reversible fuel cell, powering the car and producing byproducts of water and heat to be released as a tiny amount of clean water vapor. FCJJ-20 Hydrocar Introducing the hybrid technology that is fueling today s automotive revolution! Hydrocar demonstrates a complete, clean-energy system with solar to hydrogen power generation. Powered by electricity from sunlight, the reversible fuel cell illustrates the principles of water electrolysis, separating hydrogen from water and then recombining these elements to create power in an extremely efficient process. What s more, the car can steer independently to avoid running into obstacles. FCJJ-23 H-Racer 2.0 Experience the automotive technology of the future by building and driving your own hydrogen fuel cell car. The transparent casing and LED lighting of the car and the hydrogen refueling station allow you to watch the process of electrolysis and the conversion of hydrogen into electrical energy. H-Racer 2.0 replicates the ease and convenience of real-scale hybrid car refueling an introduction to the hydrogen refueling station network currently being constructed across Europe and the United States. FCJJ-16 Solar Hydrogen Education Kit Invent your own clean energy applications using fuel cells and the power of the sun. Generate hydrogen in a completely sustainable process by using a solar panel to power water electrolysis. Convert hydrogen into electrical energy with the PEM fuel cell and power your applications. As a starting-off point for would-be inventors, the kit comes with a small electric motor and propeller blade.

3 JUNIOR KITS FCJJ-34 Salt Water Fuel Cell Science Education Kit Now you can demonstrate a cutting edge fuel cell concept: combine a saltwater electrolyte with magnesium plates to generate electrical energy. The Salt Water Fuel cell kit enables you to investigate the science behind salt water fuel cell technology, either by powering the included mini-turbine or creating your own power applications. FCJJ-42 Ethanol Fuel Cell Science Education Kit Discover the workings of a direct ethanol fuel cell and the principles behind the conversion of ethanol into electrical energy through oxidization. Begin the process in the ethanol/water mix container then transfer this solution into the fuel cell via silicon tubing where it will be converted into electrical energy to power a mini turbine. A demonstration of the future of fuel cell technology before your eyes. FCJJ-22 Bio-Energy Kit Find out how a direct ethanol fuel cell works. Unlike most fuel cells which use either hydrogen or methanol as a fuel source, the Bio-Energy Kit is a working demonstration of the conversion of ethanol to electrical energy. The process is silent, requiring no combustion, and can run for hours. Explore the next generation of fuel cell technology. FCJJ-38 Thermal Power Science Education Kit Now you can generate electricity using nothing more than a combination of hot and cold water and a special conversion cell. As the temperature evens out between the two containers of water, the power level reduces. LED and mini turbines demonstrate the variance in the electrical power being generated and there are two thermometers to keep track of the temperature levels.

Experiment with the pitch (angle setting) of turbine blades and find out the optimum number of blades for generating electricity. Twelve blades, with three types of profiled blade and one type of poly-propylene sheet blade, provide the opportunity to find the perfect balance of wind resistance, weight and angle. Hydro-wind Education Kit Invent your own clean energy applications using a small electric motor powered by a fuel cell. Hydrogen is produced through water electrolysis by a reversible PEM fuel cell that is itself powered by a wind turbine. This hydrogen is then converted to electrical energy by the fuel cell and can be used to power a small fan.
