Tiny Solar Cell

This time I share with you an easy STEM project to show the kids how a solar cell works.

This little device collects clean renewable energy in the form of sunlight and convert that light into electricity which can then be used to provide power to light several 5 mm leds.

The solar array sends direct current (DC) electricity to the battery, a 4700 microfarad capacitator

I hope you like it

Supplies:
- Six 5 mm green leds
- Ten 1N4001 diodes
- Two 4700 microfarad capacitators
- Two micro switches push button”
