— SAFETY INFORMATION NOTES ON HANDLING WARNING ELECTRONIC COMPONENTS: Not suitable for children ››› To protect the electrical and mechanical components, we under three years. Small recommend operating the robot indoors only. Avoid contact parts. Choking hazard. with metallic objects and liquids of all kinds! Do not use any other energy source other than the solar cell supplied.
Children want to marvel, understand and create something new. They want to try everything out and explore things by themselves. They want to know more! They can do all this with our KOSMOS experimental kits. And much more than just an experiment comes of this - a strong person grows.
THE ROBOT AND ITS VEHICLES Hello! My name is Helio the solar bot. I live in Sun City because the sun shines here almost every day. That gives me the energy to experience lots of exciting adventures. I have the right vehicle for every purpose, which I would like to briefly introduce to you on this page.

— Solar-Bots Wow! — Solar energy turns into movement! Now it's time to start building the models. The great thing is that all parts for all models are included. This allows your solar bot to switch from vehicle to vehicle in a matter of seconds. And when you're not playing with it, you can simply store the bot in the Orbit platform so that it doesn't accidentally drive away.

CHECK IT OUT Amazing energy reserves Solar radiation The solar energy that hits the earth's 342 W/m atmosphere every year amounts to an unimaginable 1,500,000,000,000,000,000 kilowatt hours. This corresponds to about 67 W/m 77 W/m 10,000 times the energy consumption are absorbed are reflected of the entire human race.
