9V Battery 🔋
The 9V battery is your main power source! It gives energy to your circuits so that everything lights up, buzzes, or moves. It’s perfect for providing a steady flow of power for all your projects.
Battery Clip 🔗
The battery clip is used to connect your 9V battery to your circuit. It helps keep the power flowing from the battery to your project with its easy-to-use clip design.
AA Cells 🔋
These AA cells are smaller batteries that are great for powering up smaller components in your projects. You can use them in different ways to keep your creations running!
Hard Wire 🧷
Hard wire is like the “roads” for electricity! It helps you connect different parts of your circuit so the electricity can travel and power your project.
Alligator Clips 🦸♀️🦸♂️
These clips act like little helpers, making it easy to connect wires to different parts of your circuit. Their alligator-mouth design ensures a solid grip, making them perfect for quick connections.
RGB LED 💡
RGB LEDs are cool little lights that can change color! You can make them glow in red, green, or blue – or mix the colors for even more fun lighting effects in your projects.
Breadboard 🧩
The breadboard is your playground for building circuits without needing to solder! You can easily place your components on it and connect them to create awesome, working circuits.
Jumper Cable (M-M) 🪝
Jumper cables are the connectors that make it easy to link different parts of your circuit. They’re like bridges that let electricity flow smoothly from one component to another.
Bulb 💡
A bulb lights up when electricity flows through it, showing you how your circuits work. You can use it in your projects to make things glow bright and shiny!
Bulb Holder 🔦
The bulb holder keeps your light bulb safe and secure while allowing electricity to flow through it. It’s perfect for making sure your light bulb stays in place while you work on your projects.
DC Motor 🏎️
The DC motor brings movement to your creations! When powered, it spins and makes things move – perfect for building cool gadgets that need a bit of action.
AA Cell Holder 🔋
The AA cell holder helps keep your AA batteries safe and connected. It’s an easy way to ensure your batteries stay in place while providing power to your circuit.
Propeller 🌀
This little propeller spins when the motor is powered! It’s a fun part for building projects that need some motion, like a mini fan or flying objects.
Switch 🔘
The switch is your on/off button! It allows you to control when your circuit is active, so you can turn things like lights and motors on and off easily.
LED (Red, Yellow, Green) 💡
These colorful LEDs light up in different colors – red, yellow, and green – adding vibrant light effects to your projects. They’re great for making your creations look lively!
Buzzer 🔊
The buzzer makes noise when powered, letting you create sound effects for your projects. It’s perfect for alarms, notifications, or just adding a little fun to your circuits.
Transistor 🧱
Transistors act like traffic controllers in your circuits, helping to amplify signals and switch things on and off. They’re key components that make your projects more powerful!
Capacitor 🔋🔧
Capacitors store electricity for a short time and release it when needed. They help smooth out the flow of energy in your circuits and can make your projects more stable.
LDR Sensor 🌞
The LDR (Light Dependent Resistor) sensor reacts to light! It helps your project sense when it’s light or dark and adjust accordingly, making it perfect for light-based projects.
Push Buttons 🛎️
Push buttons are great for controlling your projects with a simple press. Each time you press one, you send a signal to the circuit to turn something on or off!
Resistors (470, 680, 1k, 100k) 🏗️
Resistors limit the flow of electricity, helping you control how much power goes to each part of your circuit. They come in different values to suit your needs, from small adjustments to larger ones.
These components are all part of the Electric Explorer kit and will help you create and experiment with electricity in fun and exciting ways!
